swat doesn't like my smb.conf's "include" line?

Hello

I've been noticing a problem with swat. It doesn't seem to parse my "include"
lines correctly. I tried adding the following two via a manual edit of smb.conf:

[global]
	include = /usr/local/etc/smbcustom/machines/%m
	include = /usr/local/etc/smbcustom/users/%U

I look at the smb.conf file in swat, and the first include line is gone. All I
see is:

        include = /usr/local/etc/smbcustom/users/

If I commit the changes from SWAT, it actually overwrites what I put in there
manually with the second garbaged version. I'm currently working around this by
re-adding the desired lines manually, but I'd prefer not to have to. Samba
reads the first version fine, but it appears swat is choking on something.

Samba version is 2.0.7; whatever comes with that is the version of SWAT I'm
using (I'd give a swat version number if I knew how to find it).

Any solutions?

Thanks

-Kurt
