Maybe there is a way to reproduce the Lightroom's file access pattern 
from a shell script in a way that reproduces the problem. Then the same 
access pattern could be done from a FreeBSD client to see whether it 
happens there as well.

Apple's SMB client appears to be FreeBSD's smbfs, however extended by 
Apple to support protocol version 3.

(Off-topic: I wonder if anyone has looked at porting this back to FreeBSD?)

Maybe the differences are too great for the bug to appear on both systems.
