In OpenLDAP 2.3, it was possible to set the rootdn of the main database to be cn=config. This no longer works in OpenLDAP 2.4, but seems like it should be valid to me.

No, cn=config is *clearly* under cn=config, which comes earlier than "". But then you don't need to set rootpw.
Ah, I see. So this is more just a behavior change between 2.3 and 2.4. Thanks!
Well, I don't think they changed that much. If you expose cn=config then any DN in that namespace will belong to the back-config; if you don't expose it, then it will belong to "". I think you weren't using the same slapd.conf with 2.3 and 2.4, if you noticed a different behavior.
