You cannot build recent python-ldap with Netscape/Sun libs, you need the 
OpenLDAP 2.1+ libs for that. Off course you can use python-ldap to query a 
SunONE server.

You can build and install the OpenLDAP libs in a completely separate 
directory without the server demons.

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/openldap --disable-slapd --disable-slurpd

Depending whether you need SASL and/or SSL/StartTLS you have to build and 
install Cyrus-SASL and/or OpenSSL before that.

And then adjust python-ldap's setup.cfg to match the prefix above.

library_dirs = /usr/local/openldap/lib
include_dirs = /usr/local/openldap/include

Ciao, Michael.
