Thanks for the report, but you have sent it to the wrong list.  GNU
coreutils does not maintain mount.cifs, so there is nothing this list
can do about fixing anything.  I'm closing the coreutils bug aspect,
although I encourage you to continue pursuing a correct fix with the
correct folks in charge of mount.cifs.
