OK, not really one to give up, I installed jessie in another VM and 
compiled samba 4.2 again and then tried to get samba & systemd to work 
together. I finally got systemd to start the samba daemons, OK what 
idiot decided that the program PIDs *MUST* go in /run ???? even though 
samba hardcodes them to go into /usr/local/samba/var/run.
