From what I've read, a Raspberry Pi would be able to handle this. I was wondering if the Amazon Fire TV has been sufficiently hacked as of yet to allow this. I will also be running XBMC on the Fire TV.
I have a Firetv sharing media from a Windows 7 machine. It works just fine, no hacks or root needed. XBMC can talk to SMB shares. On a raspberry pi you will just need to run Samba to share the files.
