Yes, I'm using mount -t cifs and then reading the files from within
the Linux file system.

Yes, I can get logs or anything else on the Linux side.

No, when I use smbclient I get spurious data as before.

I see now that the file delivered by smbclient has unmistakable
Windows stuff in it -- MSFT_CliFormat, MSFT_CliProperty and the like.

A working hypothesis at this point that the problem lies on the Windows
side. I can't fix it, but is there a way to work around it?
