Memory Leak

[John Bollard]

I have searched the archives and found a few references to 
what I believe our problem is, but I would like to provide
details on our situation and see if anyone has more feedback.

Environment:
Solaris 2.6
Samba 2.0.0  (I know, upgrade.  It is a client of ours that
		is very reluctant to upgrade without knowing
		for sure that this will help.)
Compiled with gcc 2.8.1  ( I have seen that this may be the issue)


The problem appears to be a serious memory leak.  the following top
output shows just how serious.

You can see there appears to be 2 runaway smbd processes.  

The first one (18422) does not show up in smbstatus.  The second (27095)
does show up.
