Changes since:
==============
Date: 2-Oct-93
Version: 0.3
	Release 0.4 is just to fold KCB's patches into the "official" 
	version. A small typo in mount.c has also been fixed. I improved
	a bit of KCB's error checking.

Date: 3-Sep-93
Version: 0.3

	Changed umount's -a behavior to umount filesystems in the reverse
	order found in the mtab file.  This should yield a successful
	umount on the first pass with filesystems mounted under other
	(non-root) filesystems.  Fixed problem with user umounting
	changing permissions on mtab file.  Fixed mount to use the fs type
	field in fstab/ufstab if it's there rather than explicitly requiring
	the user to specify it when not using -a.  Added noauto option so
	that filesystems can be skipped when -a is specified.  KCB

Date: 2-Sep-93
Version: 0.3

	Applied my patches to 0.2 to add the remount option (for changing
	the attributes of an already-mounted filesystem) and to make the
	behavior of -n truly hands-off (i.e., don't even bother screwing
	with the lockfile, so that mount will behave itself with a read-only
	root filesystem).  KCB

Date: 26-Apr-93
Version: 0.2

	Fixed a simple bug in umount.c that 
	pegelow@moorea.uni-muenster.de (Ulrich Pegelow) made me
	aware of.

Date: 15-Dec-92
Version: 0.1

	Added support for swap file spec in fstab, requested by 
	harrell@rsuap1.nrl.navy.mil (Matthew Harrell)

	mount/umount can now be used as swapon/swapoff commands like

		mount -t swap <swapfile> <swapfile>
		umount -t swap <swapfile>

	mount does no more complain if you try to mount root, it just
	ignores it.
