Thinking about this somewhat more, several other solutions to the
problem may be considered:
1. If "wide links = yes" and "unix extensions = yes" are both present on a 
share, do it the other way round: disable unix extensions rather than wide 
links.
2. Even better: _only_ disable the call to make symlinks (... that's the only 
one with a security implication, right?...)
3. And still better: only disallow to create symlinks that point outside of the 
share (so that the only such symlinks would be those set up "manually", for 
instance by the administrator)
