[Samba] Mac OS X client problem with supplementary groups

I have a very simple Samba 3.0.1 install without LDAP/ADS/winbind
support compiled into it. I have noticed a strange problem with
supplementary groups I noticed with Mac OS X (10.3.2). The SAMBA
server is using 'ntdomain' authentication.
When someone connects to the SAMBA server and gives their username in
uppercase (the OS's default), then none of the secondary UNIX groups
the user is a member of is picked up. If exactly the same connect is
made, but with the username in lowercase, then the groups are picked
up.
I have verified this in debug logs (can post) -- this seems v. odd to
me, surely I must be missing something here??
