Thank you for responding.
I use busybox for most of the utilities, still lacks a few that I wish
to use from util-linux...
So mount comes from busybox.
And during the cross compile I don't want to compile the mount
dependencies only to make the configure script happy...
Is the use case makes sense now?

Thanks,
Alon.
