When statically linked, mount_smbfs is limited to no character conversion
based on libiconv.so, because dlopen() returns "Service unavailable".
Since smbfs works fine w/o code conversion, if someone wants, he can
make it statically linked. I think European need dynamically linked
for their character code conversion purpose.
(In my case, I(japanese) don't use -E option for mount_smbfs, because
it doesn't work for 16bit chars, so I can make it statically linked.)

Anyway, I think this is not a bug of mount_smbfs/Makefile, IMHO.
