Thanks for that info.

I did a find_bind_mount() function as part of:
http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=coreutils.git;a=commitdiff;h=ddf6fb86
I also adjusted df to handle bind mounts better with:
http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=coreutils.git;a=commitdiff;h=0380e4c9
I'll have to revisit these to see if they're still valid.

I'll have a look at fixing up df (I guess I'll reverse the mount list
and have some internal hash to detect dupes?).

I need to see why F15 has started doing this too.
For example on my system there are 2 _identical_ entries
for /home in /proc/mounts.

cheers,
Pádraig.
