Of course. Details are written in upstream ticket:

1) IPA started
2) /etc/named.conf:

Add/modify those parameters in named.conf:

dynamic-db "ipa" {
        ...
        arg "uri ldap://127.0.0.1";
        arg "psearch yes";
        ...
};

3) service named stop
4) iptables-save > /tmp/iptables.backup; iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 389 -j REJECT; iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 636 -j REJECT
5) service named start
6) rndc reload

And now named crashes.

Thanks Adam!

Persistent search feature postponed to 6.4, as discussed with Dmitri Pal and Jenny Galipeau.

    New Contents:
When persistent search was in use, the plugin sometimes terminated unexpectedly due to an assertion failure when the "rndc reload" command was issued and the LDAP server was not reachable. With this update, the code has been improved so that connection failures and reconnects are now handled more robustly. As a result, the plugin no longer crashes in the scenario described.
