[Pkg-samba-maint] SMBFS Trouble with 3.0.27-1

I have been having trouble mounting Samba shares using smbmount, or mounting 
shares with an entry in fstab (again using smbfs). The share mounts without 
error, but no files display. Using "ls" yields an IO error. Oddly enough 
mounting a Samba share without specifying the FS type works fine. I traced 
the problem to the 3.0.27 upgrade on the server end. The version of Samba 
used on the client end doesn't make much difference. Problem resolved when I 
rolled the Samba upgrade back to 3.0.26a.

btw. I notice that libsmbclient doesn't automatically upgrade when upgrading 
Samba.
