As far as I know, the real problem is that kio-smb does not use libsmbclient, 
but smbclient. The implementation using libsmbclient is already done, it 
seems, however you need to have the libsmbclient-dev package installed while 
compiling kde for the libsmbclient support to be compiled in. This has not 
happened for one of two reasons.

1) Package maintainers forgot/didn't know.

2) They are waiting for Samba 3 to be released.
