[Samba] Conversion error Illegal multibyte sequence in smbstatus

Hi,

My output of smbstatus is bugged somehow in the Locked files section.
For every line with a non ascii character, the whole string from the
character to the end (included) is removed. Hence the line is attached
to the next one.

Here is a simplified example

Locked files:
Pid   ... SharePath   Name   Time
---------------------------------
8910  ... /path
to/a/file/with/a/non/ascii/character/imediately/followed/by/next/line8595
... /path   to/a/file/with/only/ascii/characters   Thu Feb  2 14:17:16
2017
8910  ... /path   to/a/file/with/only/ascii/characters   Thu Feb  2
14:17:16 2017
8910  ... /path
to/a/file/with/a/non/ascii/character/imediately/followed/by/next/line8910
... /path  
to/a/file/with/a/non/ascii/character/imediately/followed/by/next/line13570
... /path   to/a/file/with/only/ascii/characters   Thu Feb  2 14:17:16
2017
13947 ... /path   to/a/file/with/only/ascii/characters   Thu Feb  2
14:17:16 2017

If i use debug=3, for every bugged line, I see a message :
convert_string_internal: Conversion error: Illegal multibyte sequence()

I'm using samba-3.6.25.

the output of "locale" is :
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUAGELC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL
The output of "testparm -s -v | grep -i charset" is
dos charset = CP850
unix charset = UTF-8
display charset = LOCALE

Do you know how to fix the display of smbstatus ? I don't know what
else to check, I have another server with the exact same parameters I
just gave and it displays smbstatus correctly.

Thanks for your help.

Because of Plain text mode, my output example is split across several
lines and hence is totally meaningless.
If you want to see the example, follow this link :

I marked in red the places where the bug appears.
