Not from source. This version came
with SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 10.

To solve my immediate need, I re-coded the function like so:

  def result3(self,msgid=_ldap.RES_ANY,all=1,timeout=None):
    if timeout is None:
      timeout = self.timeout
    ldap_result = self._ldap_call(self._l.result3,msgid,all,timeout)
    if ldap_result == (None,None,None):
      return (None,None,None,None)
    else:
      rtype, rdata, rmsgid, serverctrls = ldap_result
      decoded_serverctrls = DecodeControlTuples(serverctrls)
    return rtype, rdata, rmsgid, decoded_serverctrls


Can you point me to code for "self._l.result3"?
I may have time later this week to do more debugging.
