If a user is logged in to the server and changes the name of a file in folder 11, then he tries to move folder 11 into folder 12 … mac os x (reproduced in both 10.8 and 10.9) will tell him he has not permission and will ask for admin rights (which do not work, even if you would put it in)

Create a bug in bugzilla.samba.org, upload
the smbd logs and capture traces from the clients.
Attach the smb.conf and full information on
the Samba version and server system you're
running on.
