Hi Jerome,
you can reach the python-ldap developers on the list
pyt...@li.... It's worth to subscribe to it. It's
low-volume.

Well, this is most likely caused by outdated versions of OpenSSL, OpenLDAP
libs, SASL libs or maybe even outdated python-ldap itself or a library mix.
People experiencing seg faults should build/reinstall recent versions of
their installed software in the following order:
- OpenSSL
- Cyrus-SASL
- OpenLDAP
- Python
- python-ldap

RedHat 9 is known to still ship with a very outdated version of OpenLDAP.
Ciao, Michael.
