I couldn't determine from the postinst what might be going on.  However,
here is how I was able to replicate the problem:

1. install etch 4.0r7 base system from netinst CD
2. install slapd
3. change sources to lenny and update
4. upgrade aptitude
5. install 2.6.26 kernel and reboot
6. dist-upgrade
7. 'ls -l /var/lib/ldap' and see that the files are owned by root

Regards,

-Roberto
