Nope, I've tried 'man mount', though I'll admit I was looking at the -x, 
-X, -E flags I was pointed at.

Here is what I am talking about:
~$ mount h:/mwoehlke/src /usr/src
mount: defaulting to '--no-executable' flag for speed since native path
        references a remote share.  Use '-f' option to override.
                                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

...neither 'mount --help' or 'man mount' makes *any* mention of this 
additional functionality of the '-f' flag. See? I'm *not* imagining 
things. :-)
