I just tried it using the data you supplied and it worked fine for me.
Are you sure that the entry "ou=Group,dc=carambole,dc=com" exists and is OK?
Currently I suspect that I may have found a bug in OpenLDAP 2.0.7 (the
version in Debian) because I found it to start doing some strange things when
I was doing modrdn operations which resulted in some of my data becoming
invisible to the ldap browser (but slapcat could still find it). I had to
run a slapcat then remove the database files and recreate them with slapadd
to get it going again!
When I get some time I'll play with it some more and try to track it down.
If all else fails I suggest a slapcat/slapadd just in case...
