Hello,
I've had a behaviour with some smb.conf feature ... should I call it a 
feature or a bug ? I putted this service :
[C]
;share the first dos partition
   comment = C:\
   path = /dosc
...
And when browsing it appeared as :
Sharename      	Type    Comment
C		Disk	C:\path = /dosc

whith the working directory set to /tmp!
 
The problem came from the backslash in the comment, which was taken as a
continuation line when parsing. So beware !

Would it help if I got out and pushed [the Millennium Falcon] ?
