The warning comes from......start-stop-daemon that checks for such
existence.

Indeed, the s-s-d call for "reload" in /etc/init.d/samba doesn't use
"--quiet". *This* is what would make the reload action quiet in your
case...and in any other case, while your patch only fixes the DHCP
release hook script.
