After googling around a bit, I found that adjusting /etc/pam.d/system-auth
from
auth sufficient /lib/security/$ISA/pam_unix.so ...
to
auth sufficient /lib/security/$ISA/pam_unix.so ... use_first_pass
seemed to do the trick.  Why/how did this behavior change wrt pam_winbind
between 3.0.22 and 3.0.23?
