Th only problem with data curruption are the access database file but that is
really a Samba problem. So far no problem found. But my system runs under
low loads about 25 Samba users on a 10Mb network.
That is a low load.

Never know that there was a kgcc version! I just use gcc version 2.95.2.
What distribution is this? If it is debian or SuSE I recomend upgrading
your compiler to at least 2.95.3 or 4.
You can have hung processes or file system corruption when using the older
compiler. kgcc is actually a redhat-ism. But it is just gcc 2.91-66 or egcs
1.1.2. If you can get that you are safe.

I just upgraded it to 2.4.5 and want to install xfs on it as soon as Samba
compiles fine with acl from xfs. That I'll leave it alone again.

Yes a 2.2.1 version. But it does not compile with acl support :-(
Samba expect the files in sys/ and not in acl/ and the header file are
different.
Yes these files have moved. You may be able to specify the location with a
--with-acl=/usr/include/acl or something like that. If not, you will have
to walk through the code to see where the configure script is looking and
change that. I guess the samba folks were probably caught off guard.
