So this is proof that the problem here is in fact that Kodi's smbclient does not use SMB V2 or higher but is stuck with SMB V1! From googling I could determine that this seems to be (or was?) a problem with Android, but not with a "regular" Linux distro - and xbian is "bleeding edge", isn't it? So this does not quite match what I'm seeing here, I'm on Raspberry which is of course Debian ARM, not Android. I'm wondering if there is a way to have Kodi's smbclient use SMB higher than V1. Maybe I should in fact ask this on the Kodi forum... Additionally I will try to manually mount an SMB folder in fstab via the distro's smbclient/mount.cifs, maybe/hopefully this operates with SMB V2, I will report progress. Such a workaround would be acceptable for me, however IMHO Kodi should start supporting SMB V2 and up, as MS is in the progress of disabling the outdated SMB V1 in the aftermath of Wannacry - which absolutely makes sense, no blame on them.
