If nonlocal named-pipes over SMB is to go into kernel, then it no longer falls 
upon rpcrt4 dev's to invent a solution to Samba-vs-wine... I guess this 
burden falls on the shoulders of Juan Lang now?  What say you, Juan?

Also, as a sort of subset of the wire-protocol task, you may want to add 
"Implement the OXID resolver and other ORPC peccadilloes".

Finally, Implement is misspelled above.  (The misspelling is probably 
cut-and-pasted from me :()
