smbsh issues w/ samba-2.0.7

[Brad Sahr]

I'm running Samba on RedHat Linux 6.2 (along with the VFS feature) and
dlopen() and dlsym() are used in loading the VFS. So IF I understand your
question, they did not remove dlopen/dlsym.

I thought the stat64 and dirent64 stuff was to support large files. I don't
believe that RedHat Linux supports large files, so it looks to me like some
compile flags aren't getting set correctly.
