log errors and spontaneous smbd death

I'm using the samba 2.0.6 rpm's from rawhide (2.0.6-9) - I modified the
.spec to remove the --with-mmap and added syslog support (and put smbspool
into the system)
I get these errors in my logs:

smbd[3713]:   getpeername failed. Error was Bad file descriptor  
smbd[3713]:   getpeername failed. Error was Bad file descriptor  
smbd[3713]:   getpeername failed. Error was Bad file descriptor  

as far as I can tell they coincide with failed login attempts by NT 4.0
clients. I have applied the plaintext reg patches to the nt machines (all
running sp5)

In addition smbd will stop taking connections/die at different times of
the day.

I've had to turn on a monitor and restart script to deal with this
problem. It restarts about 1-2 times a day.

under [global]
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=4096 SO_SNDBUF=4096
os level = 65


Any suggestions?
