I can confirm that shares work with kernel 2.6.25 from the intrepid repos. I still had to mount the shares with the "nounix" option. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-ports/+bug/291487 if you need to compile kernel modules with the 2.6.25 kernel.

Downgrading the kernel and/or disabling UNIX extensions may not be an option for everybody. Any chance to get the patches mentioned in comment #26 into the repos?

For completeness, here's the info from /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData (with kernel 2.6.25 on the client side):
