OK, sorry about that.
I didn't realise the consequences of my DATA_BLOB change, and didn't
realise that some of the ntlmssp/spngeo code didn't use the data_blob()
interface when creating the DATA_BLOB. This meant that the 'free'
function pointer was complete garbage.
I missed this all because I forgot I had 'use spnego = false' in my
smb.conf, and as such missed testing that section of the code.
And a big thankyou to tridge for tracking it down and for coming up with
such a simple fix.
So, sorry for all that mess...
