It's not possible with Samba "as-is".

I worked out a solution by implementing a new option -- "trim default domain",
and posted the patches to samba-technical.  See:
   http://www.dragoninc.on.ca/mail-archives/samba-technical/2004-10/0342.html

Maybe the Samba team will consider the patch (or another way to solve
this problem),  as it's apparent that I'm not the only person who needs
to do this.

Cheers,
Luke.
