Further to my mail this problem I observed in the latest Samba_3_0 branch code.

I tried enumerating with  -  "net rpc registry enumerate" call to
check the values for a given subkey, when I encountered the problem

I could view the values with a tdbdump of the registry.tdb, but they
never reached the client side properly.
