Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: samba

3.0.28a-1ubuntu4.11 has a new "unix extensions" parameter default to
yes, wreaking havoc on existing configs by disabling "wide links"

In order to respect principle of "least surprise", any new parameters
which can break existing config should default to no, or to whatever
value preserves existing functionality.

Moreover, it would be useful if "unix extensions" could be specified by
share, rather than globally (maybe then, it could even be automatically
turned off on those shares that have wide links)
