I guess openldap's clients use /etc/ldap/ldap.conf, and not
/etc/*ldap.conf:
$ strace ldapsearch -x 2>&1 | grep ldap.conf
open("/etc/ldap/ldap.conf", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 3
/etc/ldap/ldap.conf and /etc/libnss-ldap.conf (or pam_ldap.conf) have
some slightly different entries, and should not be symlinked.
On the other way, i think there's no problem to use only one file for
NSS and PAM. In fact, i already use it, making a link from libnss-
ldap.conf to pam_ldap.conf.
To be more precise, we _SHOULD_ be using only one file for these two,
just make a head in these two files, and note this line:
"This is the configuration file for the LDAP nameservice switch library
and the LDAP PAM module."

libnss-ldap and libpam-ldap should use the same configuration file
