Instead of linking all of the daemons with the line

 @$(CC) $(FLAGS) -o $@ $(SAMBA_LIBS) $(SMBD_OBJ) \
        $(LDFLAGS) $(LIBS) 

, you should remove $(SAMBA_LIBS) and instead stick in linker options, like
this:

	 @$(CC) $(FLAGS) -o $@ $(SMBD_OBJ) $(LDFLAGS) \
	 -L./bin -lmsrpc -lsamba -lsmb -lnmb $(LDFLAGS) $(LIBS)

Or something like that.

This could probably be turned into a variable somewhere near the top of the
Makefile, of course.

Note that once you've made this change, you'll have to specify the library
path, e.g.,
   $ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.
   $ ./smbd

Using libtool will address this problem as well, iirc.
