Regression with newer SAMBA versions

Hello list,

I have a gollem-1.0.3 installation with two samba backends in production 
use since several years. All worked flawlessly until I upgraded from 
samba-3.0.24 to 3.0.27a.
After upgrading, the following problems surfaced when using any samba 
backend in gollem:

* Creating a folder "folder2" in ROOT/folder1 results in 
ROOT/folder1folder2 being created
* Creating a folder "folder3" in ROOT/folder1/folder2 results in 
ROOT/folder1/folder2folder3 being created

FTP backends are not affected.
Reverting back to samba-3.0.24 resolves the problem.

Didn't have much time to look into it yet, but a quick search for 
smbclient in the samba changelogs revealed a couple of changes. The 
matching URLs are listed in [1] to [6] for your review.

Here the environments for two of the affected servers (shouldn't really 
matter):
* Gentoo Linux
* Kernels 2.4.34-grsec and 2.6.20.21-grsec
* Apache 2.0.59-r5 with PHP  5.2.5 and Apache 2.2.6 with PHP 5.2.5 and 
suhosin
* samba shares are on remote servers

Cheers,
Felix
