SASL EXTERNAL authentication isn't available when OpenLDAP is built
against GNU TLS. It took me longer than it should to find this message
which explains in excellent detail why not:
http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-devel/200307/msg00003.html
Many, many thanks for everyone's hard work on OpenLDAP GNU TLS support!
Best of luck to anyone with the resources to add SASL EXTERNAL
authentication support; it will be much appreciated when available!
(Would you please consider this additional documentation, in the
meantime?)

The slapd currently distributed in Debian is built against OpenSSL and
therefore supports SASL EXTERNAL. GnuTLS support is scheduled to be
reintroduced after the upstream production 2.4 release, and I believe that
new code will support SASL EXTERNAL. I believe this bug is therefore now
resolved.
