Further debugging yields:

The critical statement sent by _command() in lib/VFS/smb.php:
/usr/bin/smbclient "//1.2.3.4/sharename" "-p139" "-Uusername" -D "/temp"
-I 1.2.3.4 -c "mkdir \"subdir1\";"

When fired from the command line this statement does what expected in
samba-3.0.24 and misbehaves as described in the bugreport with
samba-3.0.25c and higher.

SOLUTION:
Appending a backslash in the -D argument solves the problem FOR BOTH SAMBA
VERSIONS:
/usr/bin/smbclient "//1.2.3.4/sharename" "-p139" "-Uusername" -D "/temp/"
-I 1.2.3.4 -c "mkdir \"subdir1\";" 

Will create a patch to smb.php soon.
