[Samba] downloaded win98 print drivers fail in Samba 3.0

[grant basham]

A PrintPro CUPS (v4.4.1) running Samba 3.0.0 on Fedora/Redhat Linux does
point&click driver download for WinXP just fine, but fails to do
point&click setup for Win98. When I do the point&click install, Only the
ADOBEPS4.DRV file is transferred.  If I manually copy the driver files
from \\server\print$\WIN40[\0] into the Win98 System area, it all works
fine. If I then delete the queue on Win98, only the ADOBEPS4.DRV file is
removed; the files copied in manually stay in the SYSTEM dir.  If I then
reinstall the queue via point&click, it all works.  If I then delete the
queue and remove the manually-installed files and reinstall, I am back at
the beginning with only ADOBEPS4.DRV and a non-working queue. Samba log
for setup is appended at bottom.

As suggested by Jerry, I updated so 3.0.1.rc2.  The
lib/util_str.c:safe_strcpy_fn(577) ERROR: NULL error message went away,
but the setup still did not work.  Moved the files in drivers/WIN40 to 
drivers/WIN40/0.  Still the same problem.  Further suggestions greatly 
appreciated.
