I agree that it "should" be const.  I wonder, though, if it's appropriate to
change it now since it is an interface change that will cause warnings with
all compilations of existing programs.  We don't really gain anything by
making this change now, but I'm open to changing it in 3.3 if people think
it's appropriate.  If we were to do this change, we should go through all of
the libsmbclient functions and ensure that all of them use the same
signatures as their POSIX companions.
