I'm not sure what this means.  What is a default root and how can FDS 
supply it?

I think one of the problems is that phpldapadmin depends on being able 
to do the following query:
ldapsearch -s base -b "" "(objectclass=*)" "*" "+"
The "+" is a special openldap-only (but now an rfc I think) extension 
which tells the server to return all operational attributes.  The list 
of suffixes (i.e. "roots") is an operational attribute - namingContexts 
- in the rootdse.  If you could find the section in phpldapadmin where 
it queries the rootdse, and you add this attribute to the search 
operation attribute list, that may solve the problem.

Another problem could be with anonymous access control - see here -
