smbclient -N --no-pass broken

[Skunk Worx]

Example :

$ smbclient -A /tmp/foo -N //192.168.200.10/a_share -D / -c ls

Where :
/tmp/foo contains :

username=uname
password=pass

Under F7 this worked fine. The -N (or --no-pass) option helps deal with 
broken credentials files (/tmp/foo) so no prompt is requested or shown. 
For example in scripts, which should not hang.

Under F9 this fails with :
Anonymous login successful
Domain=[FOO] OS=[Windows 5.0] Server=[Windows 2000 Lan Manager]
tree connect failed : NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED

I don't see anything in bugzilla about this. Should I bz or ask 
elsewhere about this?

TIA,
John
