I think you have misunderstood Andrew's answer.

When you initially installed Samba 4.0.0, presumably you compiled it
and then ran "make install", after which you provisioned a domain or
something like that.

So, to upgrade to samba 4.0.1, you should only have to compile samba
4.0.1 and then run make install again (after stopping samba 4.0.0, of
course).

If you have only a backup, then you should be able to restore the
backup and then compile samba 4.0.1 and run make install and
everything should just work...  unless perhaps the backup is broken or
incomplete.
