I'd bring it up to date myself if I could get it to compile(both source
trees are sitting unpacked in my downloaded source directory right now :-).
There can't be *THAT* many differences relevant to this patch between Beta 4
and Final.  Besides, I'm *trying* to learn this accursedly massive code base
:-)

Unfortunately, as I said before, it doesn't want to compile.  To wit:

Compiling smbd-fw.c to smbd-fw.o
smbd/smbd-fw.c: In function `find_ip_in_forward_list':
smbd/smbd-fw.c:60: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
smbd/smbd-fw.c:64: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
smbd/smbd-fw.c:64: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
smbd/smbd-fw.c:66: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
smbd/smbd-fw.c:70: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
smbd/smbd-fw.c:70: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
smbd/smbd-fw.c:70: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
smbd/smbd-fw.c:70: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
smbd/smbd-fw.c:71: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type

Any ideas?  The author says that some other problem is caused by my version
of GCC(2.7.2.3) but alas I know of no non-dangerous way to change compiler
versions.
