Recently you stopped shipping mount.cifs with setuid. Now I can't even
set setuid. This means that the user option in fstab doesn't work,
requiring me to mount the shares as root. This prevents me from getting
the access rights my account should have. I'm sure you have a good
reason for dissallowing setuid in mount.cifs, but not being able to
mount cifs shares normally is painful.
