/sbin/mount and /proc/mounts difference

Hi,

When running "mount" I see:
~$ mount
/dev/hda6 on / type reiserfs (rw)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
/dev/hda1 on /boot type ext2 (rw)
/dev/hda7 on /usr type reiserfs (rw,noatime,notail)
/dev/hda8 on /home type reiserfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,notail)
/dev/hda9 on /var type reiserfs (rw,noexec,nodev)
/dev/hda10 on /tmp type reiserfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)

while /proc/mounts says
~$ cat /proc/mounts
/dev/root / reiserfs rw 0 0
/proc /proc proc rw 0 0
/dev/hda1 /boot ext2 rw 0 0
/dev/hda7 /usr reiserfs rw,noatime 0 0
/dev/hda8 /home reiserfs rw,noatime,nosuid,nodev 0 0
/dev/hda9 /var reiserfs rw,nodev,noexec 0 0
/dev/hda10 /tmp reiserfs rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec 0 0

As you can see the notail-option of reiserfs isn't listed on /proc/mounts,
but it is on "mount".

Does this have any particular reason?

Wkr,
Sven Vermeulen
