I neglected to mention that the only way to put the damned SMC cable modem into (effectively) bridge mode is to pay an extra $15 a month for a single static IP. I ain't gonna do that.
Is this because the Airport doesn't know how to talk PPPoE, PPPoA, PPTP, L2TP or whatever it is your cable provider uses to get addresses?
You didn't say which model Airport you have, but a quick search reveals that the Airport Express and Airport Extreme both can do PPPoE, PPTP and L2TP, which suggests that they should be able to authenticate to your cable provider via a cable modem in bridged mode.
