OK - understood. In future will need to separate out some of these out better. Various discussions at SambaXP the week before last had complicated this merge window a little bit. Also the POSIX ones I had prioritized due to the continued pressure to workaround various posix behavior regressions that happened with the move to SMB3 (which was required for security reasons) and disabling CIFS (which had Unix extensions). We really want users to stop using insecure old protocols. There is an SMB3 interoperability test event this week - so it is likely to find and fix various bug fixes this week.
