Comment(by ra...@…):

 Noted while browsing the mount.cifs.c source code, it is highly
 recommended that it is NOT run setuid. Our BLFS instructions indicate it
 is okay to do that. In fact, our instructions are wrong because the code
 will look to see if it is run suid by an unprivileged user and exit with a
 warning message if you try to do it. I suppose the note about setting the
 programs suid should be removed.
