I can't reproduce that with a small sizelimit using OpenLDAP. 
ldap.SIZELIMIT_EXCEEDED is explicitly caught in the delegate search 
method.

The only thing I can think of is that AD spits out something malformed. 
The only way to find out (at least that's what I always do) is to step 
through it using pdb.
