That API is experimental, so do not expect it to work seamlessly.  As 
far as I know there is no publicly available code sample (although, I 
concur, some ought to be made available...).

In any case, it expects a server configured to work as a provider; see 
slapo-syncprov(5) and the Admin Guide for instructions about setting up 
slapd as a provider.
