I agree, run the provision with -d10 and out pops:

store_acl_blob_fsp: storing blob length 320 on file /usr/local/samba/var/locks/sysvol
store_acl_blob_fsp: setting attr failed for file /usr/local/samba/var/locks/sysvolwith error Invalid argument
set_nt_acl_no_snum: fset_nt_acl returned NT_STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER.

You are probably correct.

I only mentioned 'ntvfs' because using it seems to have been the only
way to get a Samba AD DC on Freebsd.

I was just trying to provision Samba as usual, no jail or chroot and I
get the same problem.
The cause seems to be an incorrect blob size, no idea what size it
should be.
