Hi Chuck,
 the patch appears to work exactly as advertised and completely resolves the
 issue - thanks.

Getting back to the idea of making this sort of thing work seamlessly,
another possibility to consider is to use the *real* uid  of the process
which performs the mount do authenticate SETCLIENTID - either as the primary
authentication or as a fall-back.
Then the a mountpoint with "users" listed as an option in /etc/fstab can be
mounted by anyone with appropriate credentials and no credential should be
needed for root, and not machine credential should be needed either.
