Houston, we have a problem!

I have a print$ share with force group which stops working after this patch!

[print$]
        comment = Printer Drivers
        path = /var/lib/samba/drivers
        write list = @ntadmin root
        force group = ntadmin
        create mask = 0664
        directory mask = 0775

I'm connecting as LEVEL1+Administrator who is a member of the group ntadmin. 
I'm not able to upload printer drivers after the patch is applied. If I revert 
the patch, I can upload printer drivers again.
