Generally back porting like this unless its a major security thing is not done 
to stable.

differences to the 6.0-stable from current

                        --with-ntvfs-fileserver \
                        --without-gpgme

LDB_V =                 1.1.27
TEVENT_V =              0.9.29

vs

LDB_V =                 1.1.26
TEVENT_V =              0.9.28

The trivial DB and the Tevent libs are also slightly different versions.

https://www.samba.org/samba/history/samba-4.4.6.html

 * BUG 12028: vfs_acl_xattr: Objects without NT ACL xattr.
   * BUG 12105: async_req: Make async_connect_send() "reentrant".
   * BUG 12177: vfs_acl_common: Fix unexpected synthesized default ACL from
     vfs_acl_xattr.
   * BUG 12181: vfs_acl_xattr|tdb: Enforced settings when
     "ignore system acls = yes".

   * BUG 11991: build: Build less of Samba when building
     '--without-ntvfs-fileserver'.

Make me wonder if there is more breakage in samba itself. Hmm wonder if 
updating stable to 4.4.9 would help?

Subject: Re: samba4 and ACL's

Here are my testing results.

OpenBSD 5.9 - BASE (Samba 4.1): Works as expected with ntvfs

OpenBSD 5.9 - STABLE (Samba 4.3): Works as expected with ntvfs

OpenBSD 6.0 - BASE (Samba 4.4): Had to modify makefile to include ntvfs
support. smb service (aka ntvfs) fails to start

OpenBSD 6.0 - STABLE (Samba 4.4): Had to modify makefile to include
ntvfs support. smb service (aka ntvfs) fails to start

OpenBSD CURRENT (Samba 4.5): ntvfs support already in makefile, works as
expected.

Is it reasonable to expect samba 4.5 to be backported to 6.0 stable in
the near future?
