[Bug 563752] Re: 3.0.28a-1ubuntu4.11 has new "unix extensions" parameter default to yes, wreaking havoc on existing configs

[AlainKnaff]

Thinking about this somewhat more, several other solutions to the
problem may be considered:

1. If "wide links = yes" and "unix extensions = yes" are both present on a share, do it the other way round: disable unix extensions rather than wide links.
2. Even better: _only_ disable the call to make symlinks (... that's the only one with a security implication, right?...)
3. And still better: only disallow to create symlinks that point outside of the share (so that the only such symlinks would be those set up "manually", for instance by the administrator)
