I can confirm this bug is, in fact, still relevant. While the message itself is seemingly harmless, 'pam_winbind' and 'wbinfo' both fail to work when connecting to a local samba4 domain controller, ostensibly because of this error. 'wbinfo -p' to a running samba server returns an error, and pam_winbind fails to authenticate users with errors hinting at an inability to connect to the winbind daemon. Curiously, 'getent passwd' with winbind set up in nsswitch.conf still works and returns all users in active directory; it's just auth and the wbinfo utility that are broken by this.

I downloaded the Debian source package for the v4 tree (4.0.0~beta2+dfsg1-3.2) and built it, but extracted the "libwbclient.so.0" file before debian/rules deleted it, and installed that in place of the v3.x one that is shipped in the libwbclient0 package, and both 'pam_winbind' and 'wbinfo -p' began working as expected.
