At best, the reason for the core dump is samba is looking for a backend
called "guest".  You could make a case for samba to be more graceful
about backends that don't exist, but that's it.

At this point, I'd run "pdbedit -L -v|less" and check the accounts
didn't get corrupted from the abnormal terminations.
