I suspect that libldap does not provide setting option LDAP_OPT_X_TLS_CRLCHECK 
on your platform.

 From ldap_set_option(3):

   LDAP_OPT_X_TLS_CRLCHECK
     Sets/gets the CRL evaluation strategy, [..]
     Requires OpenSSL.

That's clearly a dhcpd bug because if libldap is linked against libnss (on 
RedHat systems) or GnuTLS (e.g. Debian) the option LDAP_OPT_X_TLS_CRLCHECK is 
not usable. dhcpd has to check that and at least ignore this error during startup.

Ciao, Michael.
