ok. That makes me feel better.  At least it's not a regression.
I think the way to fix this is to initialize the current
idmap_cache but delay initialization of the backends until
we are marked as online.  What I don't want is to have each
idmap plugin have to concern itself with whether winbindd
is marked as offline or online.  Sounds ok ?
