Seems so.. you could try to start the postmaster via strace -f, and
capture the log
("strace -f <postmaster> -- <postmaster-opts>" 2>&1 > /tmp/postmaster.strace)
Then try to connect, and see what happens - you should see the postmaster
open your pam_ldap.conf, and then try to connect to your ldap server.
Maybe you find some hint in the strace log on whats going on...
Maybe it's also worth trying to start the postmaster by hand - the
init-script might set some different env-variables or paths than what you
have set in an interactive shell...

There are selinux-versions of debian, but in vanilla debian/sarge (and
debian/woody, and debian/sid), there is no selinux support - at least, I
never stumbled upon this, and I use quite a few debian machines).
