win32 users would benefit from python-ldap, but apparently openldap is hard to build on win32. not surprisingly, microsoft already have an RFC-like header (winldap.h) and library (wldap32.dll) which is reminiscent of old openldap API.
here is a proof-of-concept patch for making python-ldap build with winldap.h. I developed with mingw (gcc 3.4.5) which probably has a different winldap.h to the official MS platform SDK.
the resulting _ldap.dll causes an exception when you import it, but it's a starting point...
