I have the same problem in Maverick, if I mount the share using fstab entry I get two icons in "Places" (but with different icons) on of them has no umount icon and doesn't work giving error accessing the .smbcredentials and the second works well:
//server/sharefolder /media/sharefolder cifs users,noperm,credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,uid=,gid=,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
insted if I mount it manually using command-line I get right only one icon in "Places" working well:
sudo mount -t cifs \\\\server\\sharefolder /media/sharefolder -o users,noperm,credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,uid=,gid=,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777

Hope this helps solve the issue.
