Hi Peter
In my 8 weeks of ownership (and daily usage of) my 4/4, I have had this sticking twice. Both times were the morning after a wet late evening commute back home. My father (Citroen and Ford owner) told me that I should never leave the handbrake on in the garage.
Now that the various TM'ers here have also confirmed that they leave HB off but in gear, I shall do the same. (Since my dad's advice, I have left HB off only when there has been a damp/wet journey home).
Cheers
Jeremy
