Yes. We have the same problem in tests - every time samba.tests.lp_loadparm()
is used, we get our log level overridden with what is in smb.conf.
And every time python code instantiates LoadParm() class, we get the same.

Also the patch I pushed some time ago to fix provisioning is just a patch
I mean patch as "make it work", not as fixing it :)
I think we should fix this in 'log level' handling function, so that setting
log level from command line to have higher priority that setting it from
conf file (just as other params)
