I am currently not at home, I will try this next week. I already installed
samba from unstable, but I cannot test it, because I am not in my local LAN
now.

I inform you, if the bug can be closed. I am sorry for not trying the newest
version (from the log you can see that I hit this crash on Aug 5 for the
first time - after that I waited for a update but as until yesterday nothing
appeared in testing, I thought testing was already freezed an so I wrote the
bug report).
