I feel a bit embarrassed that nobody had time to look at that so far,
sorry - I'm raising the prio and add some details to hope this gets done
anytime soon.

OTOH upstream samba seems to refuse the chances (I comply with their reasons 
the bit I read into it).
That means backuppc would have to adapt.
Fortunately a recent update to the RH bug contains a patch for backuppc that 
seems reasonable.

The packaging of backuppc could use a rewrite *grr*, but I created a ppa 
version for xenial, yakkety and zesty based on that for you to verify if that 
approach could help to fix the issue.
