Could you try reproducing this with the (unofficial) 3.2.6 packages we
provide on http://pkg-samba.alioth.debian.org/packages?

These are packaged identically to 3.2.5 but we won't upload them to
Debian unstable because of the freeze for preparation of lenny.

That would help figuring out whether this bug still exists in
upstream's 3.2.6 or not...
