further comments:
- my earlier attempt at reducing the number of authentication attempts was a 
red herring.  The authentication callback is called twice for each connection 
attempt, for some reason, so my suggested patch could actually cause problems 
for kerberos auth.
- the auth callback is called regardless of whether Kerberos tickets are 
currently available.  This is, arguably, a bug in libsmbclient; since the 
callback deals only in domain/username/password, the current method of 
"forcing" kerberos authentication results in a spurious username-based 
authentication attempt.  We can work around this by playing with 
smbc_setOptionFallbackAfterKerberos() before and after the first connection 
attempt.
- after far too much time looking at this code, I now have a handle on how to 
try to move the connection out of the mount operation.  Patch to follow shortly 
(I think).
