One more tidbit, if I leave the "winbind separator" line active in the
config, but I reverse the order so that it comes after the "winbind use
default domain" line -- it works!  So,

   winbind separator = \\
   winbind use default domain = yes

makes `wbinfo -u` return DOMAIN\user; however,

   winbind use default domain = yes
   winbind separator = \\

makes `wbinfo -u` return just user.  How's that for a config parsing bug?!
