I did manage to get 2x working. The trick for httpd(8) is the following
in httpd.conf for Laravel-based apps:

server "subdomain.example.com" {
        listen on localhost port www

        root "/phpLDAPadmin/public"
        directory index index.php

        location not found "*" {
                request rewrite "/index.php?$QUERY_STRING"
                fastcgi socket "/run/php-fpm.sock"
                pass
        }
}

Still trying to get it to play nice with ldapd(8) but that is orthogonal
to the port.

I'll work on updating the port and hosting the vendored package unless
someone else wants to.
