One reason the Samba security advisory about using such things as
%m.log as filenames many not have merited a FreeBSD security advisory
is that (IIRC) the default config in the FreeBSD samba port (both of
them: 2.0 under net/samba and 2.2 under net/samba-devel) has by
default used log.%m for machine logfiles for at least a few months
now.  Of course, if you decided to change the config you could open
yourself up again.  I'm only guessing about whether this is why there
was no freebsd s.a.
