To follow-up regarding the comment from Steve on 2008-08-15, it does
work now indeed.  Basically, it is entirely my fault for not configuring
the Samba server for Kerberos authentication.  For the record, you need
to set the "use kerberos keytab" and "realm" options of smb.conf. Duh.

Steve: I see that the latest smbfs package in hardy-proposed does not
have the backported cifs.spnego that you have in your PPA.  What are
your plan in the short/medium term?  For hardy, do you plan to wait for
upstream to stabilize the name of the executable before you push an
update, or do you plan to have the backported cifs.spnego executable in
the interim anyway?
