I missed it the first time around, but you can patch Linux if this is an
issue for you:

What, that it only recently got support for the 64bit SMB extensions? 
How many enterprises need that?  Most Unix people put their critical
data on Unix servers and publish it over NFS.  Why?  Because it works. 
Unix is a great enabling technology.  Keep your data there, and you can
share it out to both Linux and Windows platforms, and share it well.
