Yep, the trust is still up and I can use wbinfo to auth users. One of
the first things I looked at was the connection to the AD. I'll check
again to be sure that the behaviour is identical in 2.6 as it was in
2.5. Also, I now have 3 sites reporting the problem :)

If you pass -d <number> to the arguments of the ntlm client in your
squid.conf then it will get the ntlm helper to log errors that are
visible in the cache.log. So far I have not found a correlation between
the errors it can throw, and this.
