I don't see any such problem on my end. Make sure that in smb.conf
you have "writable = yes" or "read only = no" (you can set this with
the Shared Folders utility in GNOME), and that other users have
Unix-style permissions to write to the shared folder (you can set this
in nautilus by selecting "Properties" in the right click menu, if you
don't use chmod)

This question remains: is putting "map to guest = Bad User" into the
[global] section of the default smb.conf an acceptable solution to
this bug? If there is a problem, it should be discussed in this bug,
and if there is no problem, it's a quick fix, and the bug should be
fixed by now.
