Control: tag -1 + upstream patch

Ok, there's a bugreport in samba (see above), and the fixes went to 4.17.1,
but not to 4.16.6 (they're in 4.16-test, though.

I can probably make another 4.16 upload - was thinking about making 4.17
the default finally but decided to wait for yet another minor release due
to another symlink attack issue found in the new 4.17 code.

Oh well. I hate useless work, - it is useless to push the already pending
patches. But the next 4.16.7 is scheduled for Jan 05 2023, which is quite
some time from now.

Hwell..
