Change in Shell Substitution with 2.0-series?

Were the Samba internals changed between the 1.9X series
and 2.0.5-ish to convert '$' to '_' when doing %[x]
substitution?
The specific instance I'm researching involves a site
that had named several printers things like:
$DELUXE
$CSS
...etc...
When they moved to 2.0.5, they started losing documents
sent to these printers.
The print logs show:
[filename] printed to _DELUXE
[filename] printed to _CSS
...etc...
Which is just use of the "%p" tag in the print command:
print command: enq -P %p %s
Since no _DELUXE printer is set up to be understood
by the AIX enq (enqueue) command, the files get dropped.
Thanks,
