Checked out git this morning (4.0.0alpha19-GIT-65d42ab) and same error 
still there.  Anyone know a workaround?  Surely people have been 
provisioning new Samba4's this week :-P

I see there's a similar bug in Bugzilla 
(https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8781) - is it worth me 
filing a new bug as it's a new provision and my error is slightly different?

Cheers,

Kev
