I second what Don is saying, you most certainly are seeing the same thing we are.  I am in the process of building a new test server to try out a patched version of samba to see if it fixes the problem.  Stay tuned to the bug Don mentioned.

This sounds like the same situation that has been 
discussed here a bit in the past week or so.  You 
probably want to follow bug#3530 on https://bugzilla.samba.org.
