smbumount requires a working smbfs. umount is better at dealing with
disconnected mounts.
You could try this patch vs 2.4.4 (kernel) and see if it helps:
http://www.hojdpunkten.ac.se/054/samba/smbfs-2.4.4-poll.patch
(Note: this address may become invalid in the near future)
For later kernels there is a more experimental patch for 2.4.17
http://www.hojdpunkten.ac.se/054/samba/smbfs-2.4.17-2.5.patch.gz
I have done something for 2.2 also, but since you don't say which kernel
you are using I can't be more specific.
