libsmbsharemodes?

Hi!

Under

http://git.samba.org/?p=vl/samba.git/.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/locking-idl

find a patch that converts locking.tdb to IDL. The problem
is -- this breaks libsmbsharemodes which already is quite a
bit rotten these days (not all data fields supported, no
cluster support etc). We could go through some hoops to
update libsmbsharemodes to the new format, but once we start
playing with SMB2.1 leases and support for disconnected
clients our internal assumptions about the locking.tdb data
model changes. The ABI we export via libsmbsharemodes will
only move further away from what we have in locking.tdb.

What shall we do about this situation?
