Straight from the OpenLDAP website:

OpenLDAP Release 
Our latest release(s) of OpenLDAP Software for general use. Currently
OpenLDAP-2.1.8 and OpenLDAP-2.0.27 are available. 
OpenLDAP Stable Release 
The OpenLDAP Software Stable release is the last release which has
proven through general use to be the most stable release available.
OpenLDAP-2.0.27, as of 20021018, is considered stable. 

The port is as up-to-date as humanly possible so I'm not sure what your
concern is here. 
If you need bleeding edge features then compiling source code is nearly
always the way to go.
