Smbmount can remount volumes when connection to server is broken. It
happens when kernel sends SIGUSR1 to smbmount process. But since smbmount
closes all file descriptors and makes dbf = NULL, if lib/debug.c tries to
write some information, vfprintf faces a null dbf an segfaults.
Included (possibily not ideal) patch so lib/debug.c, so it checks if dbf
!= NULL.
