Just to add something that has nothing to do directly with this bug, but is related: we have been using SSSD for quite a while now, using Timo Aaltonen's PPA <https://launchpad.net/~sssd/+archive/updates> and could not be happier. In my opinion SSSD is the superior solution for all things authn/authz, tying together LDAP, Kerberos and PAM. There are still some minor Ubuntu-related issues with the ordering of the involved PAM modules but everything works very well, apart from that.
I think Ubuntu would do well to properly integrate and incorporate SSSD, especially in the Server edition.
