There was a thread from Feb 28 to Feb 29 between Sebastian and Andrew that discussed this in more detail. Basically, it seems that Samba uses algorithmic mapping even when an entry in LDAP indicates that a given SID is associated with an existing UID. Normally people don't experience this bug if they built their user databases from scratch, but if they migrated from NT keeping the old NT SIDs they begin to have correct SIDs and UIDs that don't follow the samba's algorithmic mapping. So it seems when someone trys to use the Windows ACL editor to change the ACLs on a file, Samba changes the Linux ACLs based upon the algorithmic mapping of SID->UID instead of looking the SID up in LDAP first.
Hope that makes a little sense.
