It turned out to be a bug in python-ldap package, which we are using for
LDAP access:
https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-ldap/2016q1/003669.html

The bug is fixed in 2.4.25 version of python-ldap.

Anyway, I realised that LDAP authentication is a Katana specific feature,
so this problem wont affect anyone running official buildbot. I was for a
long time under false impression that buildbot suppoted LDAP out-of-the box
:)
