Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and help to improve
Ubuntu.
This bug has been fixed in hardy with the upload of samba 3.0.27a-
1ubuntu1. From the changelog:
samba (3.0.27-1) unstable; urgency=low
[...]
* get_global_sam_sid-non-root.patch: avoid calling get_global_sam_sid()
from smbpasswd -L or pam_smbpass when running as non-root, to avoid a
foreseeable panic. Closes: #346547, #450738.
