bindpw is not an OpenLDAP directive.


So why it is described in the manual of ldap.conf (even on openldap.org)
?  ;)

It (bindpw) isn't. 

And, I think you are confusing BINDPW with BINDDN.

Note that the man page you are referencing distinctly says that BINDDN is a "user-only option" which means you'd expect to find that in the ".ldaprc" file for a user, not the "ldap.conf" file that holds system wide parameters.
