Yeah, it would be good to get some clarification about whether Samba
is doing some wierd and unnatural with telldir cookies and assuming
that they can expropriate the high 32-bits of the telldir cookie for
their own purposes or not....

Jeremy, any chance you could clarify whether or not Samba depends on
telldir cookies to be small integers?
