I'm pretty sure there's a better way to inform the binaries where the LDB_MODULES_PATH is than having to update the environment modules at runtime -- I've definitely forgotten it, though. I also wouldn't be surprised if I may need to do something similar for the socket unit files for systemd -- but it's late & I'm tired...

The reason if fails is probably that libldb got a new version and sssd 
needs a rebuild. Could you try building the current package against 
current samba?
