Ok, since we have people available to test, I've gone ahead with uploading a package with this patch applied to oneiric-proposed. It should be reviewed and accepted by the SRU team in the next few days, at which point you will be able to test the fix by installing the libpam-smbpass package from -proposed. Please report any results here, so we know whether to push this fix out to the rest of our users and forward it to upstream.
