Package: smbfs
Version: 3.0.23d-4
Severity: important

This patch was added to workaround #310982 right around the release of sarge.
However, this patch never ended up in sarge. Since then, this bug has been
fixed in the upstream 2.4 and 2.6 kernels and this fix exists in the latest
sarge, etch and sid kernels.

Note that the kernel change makes some corner use cases impossible without
some additional userspace changes to samba. Upstream has agreed to accept
these patches[1], but I don't know if they've been committed yet.
