This is a pretty simple request.  The samba ebuilds should have
mirror://samba/old-versions/${MY_P}.tar.gz added to SRC_URI.  This will allow
people to merge older versions of samba even after they've disappeared from our
mirrors, as the samba official mirrors only keep the latest version in the
default location.  While it is always best for users to emerge sync, sometimes
company policy prohibits it, so this would work around that issue without
bloating our mirror infrastructure in any way.
