The code itself should be the same. We have some differences in the actual
macro calls, for example in Samba3 we call TALLOC_P(ctx, type) where in Samba4
you would call talloc(ctx, type) (I believe...). But the concepts are all the
same, the code has been backported a couple of months ago. So you have the
full hierarchical talloc with destructors, talloc_steal, talloc_reference and
so on.
