The manpage indicates that the old "username" option is also still
accepted.  But changing it has no effect.

Indeed it does.  But removing the option changes nothing -- same
error.

FWIW, when I authenticate "incorrectly" -- bad password -- I see log
messages on the filer.  The old smbfs module, when mounting *without*
sec=none, also spawns a log message on the filer, but the
configuration I'm using now *doesn't generate log messages on the
filer*.
