[Samba] Sticky bit problem

Hi
We are building a Linux app under Centos 5.3, using gnu make 3.81 and gcc 4.12. The working directory is on a remote machine and is either a Samba share or a Windows 7 share. We find that in the case of a Windows 7 share the resulting executable has the sticky bit set in group:
On Windows 7 share:
-rwxrwSrwx 1 <snip> myapp
On Samba share:
-rwxrwx--x+ 1 <snip> myapp
The Sticky bit prevents another user in the group from executing the application.
Please will someone suggest how we can prevent the sticky bit from being set?
I found a reference on this list that may be relevant:

Is this a problem with the CIFS client?
Best regards
David
