Was it fixed?  My understanding was that the init scripts were fixed to
unset TMPDIR, but that Samba itself wasn't changed.  (This is also the
quick fix, just 'export TMPDIR=/tmp' before smbd starts in your init
scripts).  

This was a bug particularly evident on Linux Mandrake, due to their move
to per-user TMPDIR stuff.
