Trying to track down msgid associated with ldap.NO_SUCH_OBJECT exception

[Chris D. <pa...@ft...>]

I'm trying to create a python port of a perl script to update an LDAP directory
against an LDIF file.
As I read LDIF entries I do an
mesgid = l.search(dn, ldap.SCOPE_BASE, '(objectclass=*)', ['*'])

I am currently keeping the ldif entries in a dict indexed by the msgid
so I may retrieve them for comparison as they come back from 
l.result3(timeout=0).

As this is for updates, I am expecting the occasional ldap.NO_SUCH_OBJECT
exception.  Unfortunately, this exception does not provide the msgid
associated with the ldap.NO_SUCH_OBJECT.

Would it be possible for the msgid to be included in the dictionary that also
has
{'matched': 'dc=COM', 'desc': 'No such object'}
