The mount.cifs.c in the Samba source tree ie the file
branches/SAMBA_3_0/samba/source/client/mount.cifs.c shouldn't care about
the gcc version (unlike the prebuilt one) and really should be quite
simple to build i.e.
gcc mount.cifs.c -o mount.cifs"
That is it. I don't know if the link to mount.cifs on the project web
page is uptodate but it is probably close enough. I need to check and
update a few links on that page this week.
