To rebuild openldap based on db5, add

WITH_BDB_VER?=  5

to /etc/make.conf and then rebuild the openldap client and server ports.

However, beware that you will need to dump out your database using
slapcat before installing the newly compiled ldap packages, and then
reload using slapadd afterwards.
