[Samba] mount.cifs doesn't do japanese?

On a FC2 system (which includes kernel 2.6.5 and samba-3.0.3), I am
able to use "smbmount" to mount filesystems with japanese filenames on
them by specifying codepage=cp932.  But when I mount with "mount.cifs"
the translation from SJIS to UTF-8 isn't done right:

  # uname -a
  Linux 5nave 2.6.5-1.358 #1 Sat May 8 09:04:50 EDT 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
  # smbclient --version
  Version 3.0.3-5
  # mount.cifs --version
  mount.cifs version: 1.2
  # 
  # smbmount //my-server/share /mnt/my-server -o codepage=cp932
  Password: 
  # ls -l /mnt/my-server
  total 4194336
  drwxr-xr-x  1 root root       4096 Sep  3 15:24 日本語
  # umount /mnt/my-server
  # mount.cifs //my-server/share /mnt/my-server -o codepage=cp932
  Password: 
  # ls -l /mnt/my-server
  total 131072
  drwxrwxrwx  1 root root          0 Sep  3 15:24 日枥?

How can I make mount.cifs properly read Japanese filenames?

Thanks,
Dave
