$summary

Most likely an upstream issue. I filed this bug merely to keep track of any progress and to reference the dev-libs/libaio dependency I gonna add to our samba-4 ebuilds.

According to log on IRC chat

https://irclog.samba.org/2014/01/20140103-Fri.log 
or 
https://irclog.samba.org/lifefeed.log

This AIO disable not only dependent on --without-aio-support

But also kernel AIO Support.

samba source3/wscript 
''',
                        'HAVE_LINUX_KERNEL_AIO',
                        msg='Checking for linux kernel asynchronous io support',
                        headers='unistd.h stdlib.h sys/types.h fcntl.h sys/eventfd.h libaio.h',
                        lib='aio')

Samba developer question was why compile it on kernel but not support it.

Please advise.
