This importance of this bug should probably be reexamined, because it has impact on other softwares, like Netatalk. It prevents AFP shares from being accessible and make Netatalk totally useless.

Here is a syslog trace where Netatalk crash because of this bug :

Disabling SMB password synchronization (for example with pam-auth-update) not onyl remove the error message of this bug but also restore Netatalk behavior.
