[Samba] rid format in sambaSID

Using ldap as my sam backend and Samba 3.0.0-2, I'm showing that samba
stops parsing a RID when it encounters a letter.  For example, I have an
accounting group with gid 2771 and therefore rid ad3.  When I list the
groups in the samba domain, however, I get this listing:

Domain Admins (DOMAINSID-512) -> Domain Admins
Domain Users (DOMAINSID-513) -> Domain Users
Domain Guests (DOMAINSID-514) -> Domain Guests
marketing (DOMAINSID-0) -> marketing
support (DOMAINSID-0) -> support
sales (DOMAINSID-0) -> sales
integrators (DOMAINSID-0) -> integrators
accounting (DOMAINSID-0) -> accounting

All of the groups showing RID 0 have RIDs that begin with a letter.  This
behavior applies to every entry in the SAM.  What's going on here?
