Python 2.6.2, python-ldap 2.3.8, Apache DS 1.5.4

It does work against eDirectory and Active Directory (as mentioned). 
"ldapsearch -A" also works against Apache DS. The question is still: is 
that a Python-LDAP or Apache DS bug?

Could you install Apache Directory Server or Apache Directory Studio? 
Both allow you to create that directory that I queried in about one 
minute.
