This looks VERY interesting, thanks for your efforts.  The best place to
send it is samba-patches at samba.org in diff -u format, or if you have too
many other things in the tarball then just sending a link to an FTP site
might be a good idea.  (Send this to samba-patches as well, so we don't
loose track of it).
