I hope this has been fixed in Samba 3.0.6 - winbind now returns home
directories in all lower case, so pam_mkhomedir should behave a bit
better now.  If pam_mkhomedir isn't using the actual home directory
indicated in getpwnam(), then there isn't much we can do (but that's how
it worked, last time I used it).
