I would try to isolate the problem.  Is smbd getting built correctly
and incorporating your changes?  Run "strings smbd" and see if your
debug message is in the version that's built after you do "make".

Also, check and see where smbd is being installed by "make install".
I would do this by doing "make install > make.install.log 2>&1".
Then run "grep smbd make.install.log" or look through it with "less"
or your favorite text editor and see what path it really installs to.
