 Jorrit, you showed a test involving 'mv /var/lib/samba/
 /var/lib/samba.bak/' - did you have a /var/lib/samba directory on your
 system when the original crash happened that you were reporting?

Steve,

Yes, moving or not moving the directory doesn't make a difference, it
will segfault in both cases. Recreating the directory as Thierry
suggested does fix the problem, though.

 By corruption I didn't mean a corrupted bits in a specific file, but
 rather a corrupted state for the global /var/lib/samba directory
 contents... The basis for this is that in the mentionned bugs clearing
 the directory (and especially the existing secrets.tdb file) made
 everything working again. Clearly the backtrace analysis is more precise
 than this wild guess based on observed symptoms.

   
Steve, Thierry,

r...@hercules:~# mv /var/lib/samba/ /var/lib/samba.bak/
r...@hercules:~# exit
jor...@hercules:~$ sudo -s
[sudo] password for jorrit:
Segmentation fault

Also, the version of libpam-smbpass I'm currently using is 
2:3.2.3-1ubuntu3.4

Let me know if there's more information you need.

 Jorrit: it will indeed segfault if there is no /var/lib/samba directory
 anymore. But an existing (empty) /var/lib/samba should work (files will
 be recreated). That is, if this bug is the same as the other two I
 mentionned.

   
Thierry,

I guess you are right. Creating an empty directory did solve the
problem.
