did you cut&paste the above?  ie. do you really have:
"--with-lockdir=/var/state/sa mba"
                           ^^^^^^
and "--with-syslo g"
               ^^^^
as you've written above?  that would confuse "configure" no end.


I just tried the following recipe and it Works For Me (tm).

troppo# apt-get source samba
[ build acl debs, then: ]
troppo# dpkg -i ./acl-dev_1.0.8_i386.deb ./acl_1.0.8_i386.deb
...
troppo# cd samba-2.2.1a
[ vi ./debian/rules -> added --with-acl-support (see below) ]
troppo# dpkg-buildpackage
dpkg-buildpackage: source package is samba
dpkg-buildpackage: source version is 2.2.1a-1
dpkg-buildpackage: source maintainer is Eloy A. Paris <peloy@xxxxxxxxxx>
dpkg-buildpackage: host architecture is i386
...
 debian/rules build
dh_testdir
# Add here commands to configure the package.
[ -f source/Makefile ] || (cd source && ./configure --with-fhs --prefix=/usr 
--sysconfdir=/etc --with-privatedir=/etc/samba --with-lockdir=/var/state/samba 
--localstatedir=/var --with-netatalk --with-smbmount --with-pam --with-syslog 
--with-sambabook --with-utmp --with-readline --with-acl-support)

So that seems to have done the trick.

cheers.
