[Samba] winbindd problem - STATUS_BUFFER_OVERFLOW (0x80000005)

[bryce]

I had the same problem. Error and all. What turned out to be my problem 
was that i was using gentoo and building things for a pentium4, which 
gcc3.2 makes bad binaries for.

So changed everything to build for a pentium3 and the problem was 
solved. I don't know if this applies to you, but something to be aware 
of none the less.
