Currently, ADS support is off for the package builds, as it creates
dependency problems with Kerberos5. Also, an experimental support
for extended attributes is included.

In addition following problems solved:
o linking agaist libiconv is mandatary now
o more ways of detecting Kerberos5 installation and
LIB_DEPENDS on Heimdal port if none is found -
should address problems with bentoo building as well
o fixed problem when port wasn't compilable when LDAP
wasn't chosen and ADS was.

knob for Kerberos is misleading, as it is necessary only for ADS support;
the installation scripts renamed installed binaries to *.old. Also,
delete the USE_OPENLDAP_VER?= line, it is not only not needed once you
set USE_OPENLDAP=yes, it can positively interfere with LDAP version bumps

samba on freebsd.
Following is description made by one of the Samba developers:
"The problem is we switched to using recv() with the MSG_WAITALL flag
instead of read(). This makes Samba faster on most systems. On FreeBSD it
causes a massive slowdown and I don't know why. To fix it, change
the definition of MSG_WAITALL to be zero in lib/util_sock.c and
recompile 2.0.5a. I'm hoping someone from FreeBSD will get back to me
with some explanation. Regards, Jeremy Allison, Samba Team."
This problem where observed by almost all samba-2.0.5a users and typically
it led to 10-20x decrease in write speed.
