thanks for the hint!

I added the patch to http://samba.org/samba/patches/. It should pop up
there in a few minutes. Of course, mentioning the patch on the Wiki makes
sense also. I added a hint to
http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Release_Planning_for_Samba_3.0, but that's
not exactly the most prominent place to find the link. We don't have a
special Wiki page for such hints yet. I will put it on my list.

Thanks!

Cheers,
Karolin
