Yes, we have not fully merged the parameter tables.  We know that we
still need to do it.

Essentially, the samba4 AD components (including the ntvfs file server)
honour the parameters listed with
 samba-tool testparm -v
The smbd file server, which is now the default in the DC honours
parameters listed with
 testparm -v

The idea is to merge these lists, so at least superficially the two
parsers behave identically, but it is a tedious task not yet finished. 

My guess is that the lack of the smbd file server is a packaging error
(perhaps complicated by it forcing a conflict with the samba 3.6
packages).
