[Samba] smbd PANIC at privileges

I've had a lprng/samba print server for (literally) years that has just
worked perfectly. Everything is setup with full guest printing, mainly
to make our lives here a little easier.

I had to migrate the machine from one physical server to another and I
just basically copied the lprng printcap and smb.conf file to the new
server, restarted the services, and everything seems to be working.

However, I get a TON of the following messages:

Oct 19 15:05:23 hal smbd[5216]: [2011/10/19 15:05:23.518393,  0]
lib/privileges.c:67(get_privileges)
Oct 19 15:05:23 hal smbd[5216]:   PANIC: assert failed at
lib/privileges.c(67): data.dsize == sizeof( SE_PRIV )
Oct 19 15:05:41 hal smbd[5223]: [2011/10/19 15:05:41.347537,  0]
lib/privileges.c:67(get_privileges)
Oct 19 15:05:41 hal smbd[5223]:   PANIC: assert failed at
lib/privileges.c(67): data.dsize == sizeof( SE_PRIV )

Any ideas? I googled and couldn't really find anything that didn't just
consist of source code pushes and stuff, nothing that helps
troubleshoot.

I'm using samba 3.5.9, however, an upgrade to samba-3.6.0 didn't make a
difference, other then break some XP printing, etc.
