I'm sorry, I never got a chance to fix that, and it got caught up in the
run-up to our annual event with Microsoft, where we were working on
multi-domain support.

The tasks to fix this (in case someone else wishes to take this on) are:
 - sort out the fetching of the error code (probably per the patch)
 - use SAMR to set the password on the account if we cannot set it over
LDAP (ie, catch the exception and retry with samr using the python
bindings).
