While a great idea, I think this is quite dangerous in practice.  If run
on the 'backend' ldb files, it could corrupt the indexes because the
samba modules are not loaded (and so it would compute incorrect index
values). 

Better would be to run tdbbackup on the tdb files. 

Sorry for not reviewing this earlier,
