Thanks. Sorry for the FAQ.

You may find findmnt provides a more digestible list of mounted file
systems on modern Fedora boxes. It will search fstab, mtab or
/proc/self/mountinfo and report the file systems it finds in a variety
of formats.

On a simple vm with little in /etc/fstab mount prints:

http://fpaste.org/H0kf/

Whereas findmnt shows me:

http://fpaste.org/z6f4/

If I only care about things specified in /etc/fstab:

# findmnt -s
TARGET SOURCE                                    FSTYPE OPTIONS
/      /dev/mapper/vg_rawhide-lv_root            ext4   defaults
/boot  UUID=765338a0-b8f7-44b6-9178-3143eb94a119 ext4   defaults
swap   /dev/mapper/vg_rawhide-lv_swap            swap   defaults

Where is sda2 mounted?:
http://fpaste.org/A6WZ/

What is mounted at /run?:
http://fpaste.org/kiPH/

The command can also do more fancy things like poll a mount point for
activity (mount, umount, remount etc) and resolving LABEL and UUID
references in the fstab to the real device paths.

More options and examples are available in the man page.

Try this option that I found in the man page:
findmnt --fstab --evaluate

This changed the output of "mount" on my system from something like your first paste to this:

steve@localhost ~$ findmnt --fstab --evaluate
TARGET       SOURCE                          FSTYPE OPTIONS
/            /dev/sda2                       ext4   defaults
/boot        /dev/sda1                       ext4   defaults
/home        /dev/sda6                       ext4   defaults
/mnt/mirror  /dev/sdc1                       ext4   defaults
/mnt/mirror2 /dev/sdb1                       ext4   defaults
/usr/local   /dev/sda5                       ext4   defaults
swap         /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol01 swap   defaults
