Right, I missed that. Sorry. Nope, as expected it doesn't pass for me either.
This is Rob's cached credentials code, I never got the Wine-side credential
cache to work myself. :) I know of one user who uses the winbind cached
credentials, but the wine cred cache seems to be pretty un-tested (and broken,
no big surprise).

I think we could cheat our way through this here. I haven't looked into this
stuff for a while, but all we need to come up with for the local case is a
username/password combination ntlm_auth will accept for the "server" side.
You can easily bypass the usual check ntlm_auth does for the server side by
running ntlm_auth with --username=user --password=pass --domain=dom

So assuming ntlm_GetCachedCredential() returned user WINE\bob and password
secret if there's no real cached credentials... we'll handsomely break
winbind-based cached credentials if we need to authenticate against a remote
server.

I'll have to give this some more thought. Sorry I can't provide you with a
ready solution here.

A long-term fix would be to get Samba winbindd to also be able to authenticate
local users (like the local SAM on a windows machine) and store that user's
creds in the winbind cache at login time, just like it does for domain logins.
Then Wine could always use the winbind credentials cache.
Unfortunately, winbindd can't do that quite yet, probably a couple of man-weeks
worth of work on Wine and Samba if you know where to look.
