samba - Jul 2013 - Apparent bug remains in v4.0.7 - Hosts allow parameter causing errors and vey slow MS Office document access

>From smb.conf:
	hosts allow = 10.0.0. 127.

Same story using the following syntax instead:
	hosts allow = 10.0.0.0/24 127.0.0.1/8

If I comment out the hosts allow line, the slow MS Office document access
and most of the errors in the log go away.

I just compiled and am now running 4.07 stable but the problem was also
present in 4.0.6.  We'd like to be able to use the hosts allow parameter to
ensure that no one outside the LAN can access the server but I can always
use iptables to do the job if necessary.
