Could you describe a bit the use-case?

Overall, if curl is able to retrieve files via SMB, I guess this patch
is the simplest solution, compared to your other patch that uses smbget.

Note that this needs a better commit log: explanation of the use-case,
no reference to the "other implementation", and text wrapped to 80
columns.

Also, I'm pretty sure updating the Buildroot manual is needed to
document this additional site method.

Thanks!

Thomas
