You could have Samba 3.0.9 trust Samba4, but not the other way around. 

This isn't a tested feature, but NT4 trusts rely on very little from the
trusted domain (ie Samba4), and the little it does need I think we
support. 

You also cannot then migrate your users between the two domains without
pain, as the domains must have different SIDs, and we do not support SID
history (yet). 

Is there something in particular that is worrying you about taking the
plunge to Samba4?
