Seeing the exact same issue here. I also note that the crash seems to be
from starting smbd with the '-D' parameter by samba-ad-dc, however, it
shouldn't even be trying to run this from what I can see. The system is
running a fresh installation of Samba with a vanilla configuration and
as such is not configured to function as a domain controller. The init.d
script for samba-ad-dc contains this excerpt:

start)
                SERVER_ROLE=`samba-tool testparm --parameter-name="server role" 
 2>/dev/null | tail -1`
                if [ "$SERVER_ROLE" != "active directory domain controller" ]; 
then
                    exit 0
                fi

However, the upstart script performs no such check and simply attempts
to start it unconditionally. I'm not sure if this is related to the
behaviour we see here (expecting configuration parameters that aren't
present?) or is a separate issue.
