 *Only* external libs -- libblkid (e2fsprogs) or libvolume_id (udev).

 See thread:
 http://www.mail-archive.com/util-linux-ng@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg00158.html

 I have also almost same patch from Kay Sievers who is volume_id
 author.

 The old, obsolete, broken, unmaintained and ugly FS detection code
 will be completely removed from the mount command. The old code is
 already ignored in Suse, Debian (I think), RHEL/FC, ???  for few
 years.
