The device has not been mounted by mount(8), right? It seems that we
are talking about /sbin/mount.ntfs.

> /dev/dm-7, it fails saying that is not mounted.  This appears to be

Fixed, see the patch below.

Note that mount(8) canonicalizes all device names, so /dev/dm-N is
always translated to /dev/mapper/<name>. In the mtab should be 
stored the /dev/mapper/<name> paths only. 

The /dev/dm-N names are private for DM and should not be used in
userspace for normal operations. All utils which use the /dev/dm-N
format for DM devices (in output or in files like mtab) should be
FIXED.
