You're not right.
Using smbtree is not the same as mounting filesystem. It not even the
same as using smb server inside container.
All possible and accessible filesystems you can get
from /proc/filesystems inside of container and on your HN. And even if
all modules are loaded and /proc/filesystems contains cifs FS, you'll
not be able to mount cifs filesystem inside of container.

I do not have a VE mounting CIFS, but a samba server.
I did a fast test inside a VE, with no other specific configuration than the 
VETH:

~# aptitude install samba-client
~# smbtree 
Password: 
BLAU
        \\TEST                          samba test server
                \\TEST\IPC$             IPC Service (samba test server)
                \\TEST\TEST             Testing
                \\TEST\PROJECTES        GESTIO I DOCUMENTACIO DE PROJECTES

The Samba server and the Samba client are different VEs in the same server.
If smbtree works, mount.cifs should also work, shouldn't it?
