Or LDAP_ADMINLIMIT_EXCEEDED.

I'm not sure that is correct. rfc2251 §4.5.2 says:
Following all the
SearchResultReference responses and all SearchResultEntry responses
to be returned by the server, the server will return a response
containing the SearchResultDone, which contains an indication of
success, or detailing any errors that have occurred.
So apparently existing results _can_ be followed by an error response.
(And In LDAPv2, a serious error after some results should presumably
be reported as LDAP_PARTIAL_RESULTS.)
