force directory mode not working?

The system: Samba 2.0.6 on RedHat 6.2 (intel), using RedHat's 2.0.6-9
samba RPM.
The problem:
I have set up the following share:
[intraweb]
comment = Intranet Website
path = /project/intranet/web/html/intranet
public = yes
writable = yes
printable = no
create mask = 0775
force directory mode = 2775
Despite the presence of the "force directory mode" entry, all
subfolders created in this share have a mode of 0775.
My perusal of the documentation indicates that 2775 is a perfectly
legal argument to "force directory mode", and indeed a quick search
of google turns up dozens of example config files using exactly that
value.
Am I missing something obvious here?

mud-rassling to an unexpectedly gullible national press corps. And we thought
we were the hayseeds. (--Gene Lyons)
