I applied the patch as described in Bug 9862, compiled and installed the code, and now it works as expected.  Having the user account in AD only is sufficient, I no longer have to have the account also in the Linux server's passwd file.  So indeed, it appears that I have encountered the "map to guest = Bad Uid" bug as outlined in bug 9862.

You might want to point out to oracle that Samba 4.0 is now EOL, also 
the ripple goes the other way, from Samba down to distros. I also don't 
think that 4.0 will ever get this patch.
