"Each other" implies bidirectional trust. If the info in the FAQ is 
still correct, then this is not yet possible.

Also it would require moving from internal DNS server to bind, because 
trust requires DNS resolving of the other domain. This is difficult when 
each DC run its own DNS server, and all info about the domain is only 
stored there. Windows server can do this with a Conditional Forwarder in 
the DNS server. But the internal DNS server of Samba 4 can handle only 
one single forwarder, and that is usually already used to resolve the 
rest of the world.
