In nsswitch.ldap :

[...]
# consult DNS first, we will need it to resolve the LDAP host. (If we
# can't resolve it, we're in infinite recursion, because libldap calls
# gethostbyname(). Careful!)
hosts:          dns ldap

# LDAP is nominally authoritative for the following maps.
[...]

should be :

[...]
# consult FILES first, then DNS : we will need it to resolve the LDAP host. (If we
# can't resolve it, we're in infinite recursion, because libldap calls
# gethostbyname(). Careful!)
hosts:          files dns ldap

# LDAP is nominally authoritative for the following maps.
[...]

I had the problem because my personal laptop couldn't use ldap host definitions, since it's not declared in DNS...

That's a smart change.  I'll get this added to portage.

The change has been included in nss_ldap-215-r1.  Thanks for the suggestion.
