This is only an option in Samba 2.2, not 3.0, and controlled exposure of
an interface to winbind that could be argued as a security hole - if you
squinted right.  That is, it was something we didn't want to enable on
all systems - just on systems that needed it for squid interoperability.

In Samba 3.0, we fixed it by implementing an ACL mechanism, so we didn't
need to make it a compile-time on-or-off.
