Hi Taylor

Thanks for trying to grab a backtrace for this issue; however the trace you provided is not the same as in the original bug report - its actually a trace for normal operation of samba (which uses SIGUSR1 for signaling between processes).

Again the original trace looks similar to http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba-technical/2012-May/083909.html.

I think we can see that a null pointer being passed is causing the issue - but we still need to figure out why this happens.

Please could reporters of this issue set the log level to 5:

    log level 5

in /etc/samba/smb.conf, reload smbd and try to reproduce again - hopefully samba will provide some useful debug messages which might help ID whats going on.
