It'd probably be helpful if - assuming you're running a recent Samba
version - you can attach to the winbind process with GDB when it gets
stuck and post a backtrace, so that the devs can see exactly where the
problem is.  No doubt the corrupted .tdb files are causing an infinite
loop somewhere.

What version of Samba are you running?

Cheers,
Adam.
