[Openstack] Help with keystone LDAP backend

This is what came out of my logs.  I've bolded what looks relevant to me:

LDAP init: url=ldap://typhon.acm.jhu.edu
2013-03-04 16:06:01    DEBUG [keystone.common.ldap.core] LDAP bind: 
dn=cn=admin,ou=OpenStack,dc=acm,dc=jhu,dc=edu
2013-03-04 16:06:01    DEBUG [keystone.common.ldap.core] LDAP search: 
dn=ou=Users,ou=OpenStack,dc=acm,dc=jhu,dc=edu, *scope=1*, 
query=(objectClass=inetOrgPerson)

Unless I'm reading that very wrong, my scope search request is being 
ignored.  Time to dive into the code, I suppose.
