Where does one can find some information about these new binaries,
how they're being used and by what?

For quite some time I had a standalone machine with smbd & nmbd running
(this is my primary work machine where I build samba and usually experiment
with the newly built binaries).  Usually, systemctl restart smbd nmbd has
been enough. But a few times already I've seen other binaries, something
from /usr/libexec/samba/ - like mentioned in this bugreport before.  I don't
know who started these and why, and why they're left running.

Thanks,
