Actually, I had noticed that, but since I didn't really have any experience
with smbmount previous to this, I assumed it was normal. And besides, I had
already sent the message off when I noticed, and my internet connection was
down for the night :)

It didn't happen to me either, once I applied your patch.
Thanks for you help,
