Don't know about /proc/mtab, but it would not be too difficult
to make a tool that recurses the entire filesystem, does a
stat() on every directory entry, and then generates a tree of
mounted filesystems from the information derived from the
various st_dev fields. I can fix one up if anyone's interested.
