Subject: mount -a segfault

Package: mount
Version: 2.12h-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

On boot, the filesystems are not automaticaly mounted but "/", and some others filesystems like devfs or usbfs.
The others fs, like /boot, /home, or some /mnt/foo stuffs are not mounted.
Trying :
lisa:/home/bouil# export LANG=C
lisa:/home/bouil# mount -a
Segmentation fault
lisa:/home/bouil#

This can explain why nothing is automaticaly mounted at boot. Mounting each filesystem present on /etc/fstab manually works well.
