As I just noticed a Samba 2.2.x related security advice and
a new 2.2.7 version, I gave it a quick try on MPE/iX -- it
seems that my Samba 2.2.5 diffs for MPE/iX can also be used
to build Samba 2.2.7 successfully.

I haven't excercised the new binaries a lot and I also don't
think that the security issue does affect MPE systems (as it
is a buffer-overrun attack, which don't work on MPE because
MPE uses PA-RISC features more effectively than Unix/Linux),
so I haven't uploaded the binaries to my Samba/iX web pages.

If someone *should* want/need the code, just let me know.

Lars.
