hm, seems the problem is in 

  mount: mount-2.12r

as it sees the mentioned cifs mounted volume whereas there is none 
(/proc/mounts did not list it).

Still, there's something weird with umount.cifs: if I (really) mount the 
remote volume, the command succeeds, but then umount hangs. 
But <Ctrl-C> can abort it, then the volume *is* unmounted.
So umount succeeds as well, but the utils fail to get the actual (u)mounted
status. 
I'm usure who to blame here - umount or umount.cifs - but that breaks 
scripts. Bugging mount, since I see that mount/umount -ing the cifs volume
keeps incrementing the corresponding line count in mtab ...

Not smbfs-related, after all; should be reassigned to pkg mount - sorry 
for the noise. 


thanks
