samba - Oct 2010 - Modify permission not available unless group permissions are set to write.

I've been wrestling with a problem on newer versions of samba with a
configuration that "used" to work in samba 3.0.33 (RedHat Enterpise 5
packages) This maybe due to changes in the may samba maps NT permissions,
but i'm not sure so I thought I would ask.

I have a samba 3.3.8 (RedHat Enterprise 5.5 Samba3x packages) and samba
3.4.4 (Redhat Enterprise 6 beta packages) installation both connected to
active directory with samba/windbind set-up as below (slightly adjusted from
the true workgroup/server names):

workgroup = WORK-GROUP
password server = server.ac.uk
realm = TEST.AC.UK
security = ads
idmap backend = tdb
idmap uid = 16777216-33554431
idmap gid = 16777216-33554431

template shell = /bin/bash
template homedir = /home/%U
winbind use default domain = true
winbind offline logon = false
winbind separator = +

And a share set-up as below:

[blah]
        path = /home/blah
        writeable = yes
        force user = %D+andy
        force group = apache
        valid users = %D+andy

I have the folder blah set with the following permissions:

drwxrwxr-x. 4 andy apache 4096 Oct 29 11:56 /home/blah

Inside the folder I have 2 additional folders one with group write bit set
and one without

drwxrwxr-x. 3 andy apache       4096 Oct 29 15:44 withgroupperm
drwxr-xr-x. 3 andy apache 4096 Oct 29 15:50 withoutgroupperm

With this configuration I can create files and folders no problem in either
of the subfolders by connecting as myself (andy), I can also modifiy the
contents of files, but I cannot change the name of files/folders in the
subdirectory that doesn't have the group write permission set. According to
Windows I don't have the "modify" permission.

In Samba 3.0.33 on RedHat Enterprise 5 this worked although it would appear
that even under 3.0.33 you do not have the "modify" permission set. I
don't
know if this was a bug that was fixed, but I would've thought as the owner
of the folder and the "rwx" permission bits set for myself and the
files
also having "rwx" permissions for myself I should be able to change
the
names of files/folders that I have created within that folder via samba?

Am I going mad?

Here is a samba log extract at loglevel 10 that shows the ACL check and the
eventual access denied (on 3.4.4)
