In August 2005, the Congress passed and the President signed into law
the Energy Policy Act of 2005. Among many other important energy saving
measures, this law changes the start and end dates of Daylight Saving
Time (DST). Beginning in 2007, DST will begin three weeks earlier (March
11, 2007) and end one week later (November 4, 2007).

I know that Solaris and Java need to be patched for this.  Does anyone
know if any version of Samba or related libraries (ex: openLDAP, gcc,
etc) need to be updated for this change?

My company is still using Samba-3.0.10 for Active Directory because it
just works.

BTW, my list of software to build samba for AD is:
cyrus-sasl-2.1.19
krb5-1.3.5
openldap-2.2.17
samba-3.0.10
gcc_small-3.4.1
libiconv-1.8
tk-8.4.6
tcl-8.4.6
db-4.2.52.NC
openssl-0.9.7d
make-3.80
