samba - Oct 2010 - Samba 3.5.6 jumbo patch

I have cloned the samba git file and selected the version with the tag:
release-3-5-6.  I tested the patch with git apply -check, and I get the
following error:

Error: patch failed: source3/smbd/posix_acls.c:3856

Error: source3/smbd/posix_acls.c: patch does not apply.

 

I am new to compiling source for packages, so this may not be a real
problem.  I wanted to make I have a samba version with extended attributes
and ACL operational.

Hmmm. Try "v3-5-test", not the release branch. The v3-5-test
branch is what becomes the next release.

Okay,

I selected the origin/v3-5-test and tested the patch with git apply --check.
I see the same error message as before.  I also confirmed that the new
branch I created for the build is the current branch via git branch.
