per-user smarthosts don't really fit into the classical Unix Mails
setup that the Debian exim4 packages implement.

Don't do this, this is not supported and will probably cease to work
in Debian etch.
Instead, in etch, override the DCsmarthost macro from the exim
configuration file.
I would accept a patch for the configuration post-etch, since I do not
use a setup like this myself and therefore cannot test.
