The lp_parm_xxx() functions seem to only retrieve global parameters ...

Nope, don't think so. Check out the use in modules/vfs_acl_common.c
where I do:

        bool ignore_file_system_acl = lp_parm_bool(SNUM(handle->conn),
                                                ACL_MODULE_NAME,
                                                "ignore system acls",
                                                false);

to get a module specific parameter.
