 I have the same problem, too, ever since I've upgraded to 5.1RC4.
 It was working fine (FSVO "fine"; cf. PR 37025) before. I've also cranked
 up NMBCLUSTERS *= 8 but it didn't help. 
 
 Btw, I don't really feel comfortable going to -current because of
 this. Production machine etc. pp. Luckily there's pkgsrc's samba.
 
 This, though, is a clear regression from 5.0!
