 remaining minor bugs.  This release is *not* intended for production

 o   Jeremy Allison <jra@samba.org>
+    * BUG 4494: Make sure to fail immediately if sendfile fails and
+      don't continue on to call chain_reply() (based on report from
+      Kevin Jamieson).
+    * Remove tdb.h from the libsmbsharemodes.so header file.
+    * BUG 3634: Fix crash in nmbd caused by a bad "interfaces" include
+      in smb.conf.
+    * Add initial version to winbindd_cache.tdb file.  Automatically
+      delete existing non-versioned cache files.
+    * Fix the storage size of time_t in winbindd_cache.tdb to be 8
+      bytes.
+    * Cope with signature errors on sessionsetupX logins where the
+      server just reflects our signature back to us. Allow the upper 
+      layer to see the real error.  
+    * BUG 4512: Limit the volume label for a share to 32 UNICODE
+      characters.
+    * Allow arbitrary bases in int and ulong parsing in smb.conf.

+
+o   Gerald (Jerry) Carter <jerry@samba.org>
+    * BUG 4501 (partial): Fix crash bugs in idmap_ad plugin by adding
+      the schema_mode option when using "winbind nss info = template".
+    * BUG 4491, 4501 (partial): Disable attempts to allocate a uid/gid if no
+      idmap alloc backend has been defined.  Do not defined a default
+      alloc backend.
+    * Fix "make install" to include creating the links between
+      idmap_ad and the nss_info_rfc2307 and nss_info_sfu plugins.
+    * Enable the --with-dnsupdate in the Fedora/RHEL RPM packaging
+      files.
+    * BUG 4508: Remove potential loops in the idmap API by requiring
+      the caller defined the SID type rather than having the idmap layer
+      call back up to determine the SID type when allocating
+      uids/gids.
+    * Don't inherit the offline flag for winbindd_domains that have
+      not been initialized yet.
+    * Fix a crash in idmap_ldap caused by a NULL pointer dereference.
+    * Fix deadlock and timeout conditions in idmap_rid.
+

+    * Merge numerous libreplace fixes from the SAMBA_4_0 code base 
+      (stdint.h, stdbool.h, unsetenv, strptime(), strtoll(), et. al.).
+    * Move ZERO_*, ARRAY_SIZE and PTR_DIFF macros into libreplace.
