I think I remember the patch; I guess it was the "samba patch".  I can
extract it for you; not sure if it'll work easily w/o the other
infrastructure but I'll see what I can do.

I can see no chance that it'll ever make it into 7.1 as an Errata
Notice though, so you would have to keep patching your system
yourself.
