ah. i have performed similar tests with nfsd and delegations. i'll open a file 
for READ locally on a version 4 nfsd exported portion of the file system, and 
request a lease via fcntl_setlease() setting up a signal handler to handle the 
break_lease callback. then, i'll open the same file for WRITE from an nfs 
version 4 client. the lease on the local file is broken within 1-2 seconds, 
and then nfs client WRITE is serviced. if you want, i can send the source to 
the test programs to set a lease.

Eh?  There's only one client, and it's idle.  Presumably it's holding
an oplock.

When I want to edit a file directly on the server, opening for write
stalls for a long time.  Presumably the lease causes Samba to send a
break_lease to the _one_ client.  Being an idle client that's not
holding the file open, it should respond immediately to break_lease,
and then Samba should let me open the file locally.

That's how leases are supposed to work, but something in that whole
arrangement isn't working properly.  Samba is 3.0.6-r3, kernel is
2.6.8 (both gentoo versions).
