mount -a bug

Hi there,

I have just noticed, when using 'mount -a', the first mount error stops 
the mount process, which behaviour has changed from previous busybox 
versions. I mean if a device does not exist in an fstab entry, for 
example.

In our environment, this could cause troubles sometimes. But also I have 
noticed, that util-linux's mount tries to mount everything, ignoring 
errors when using -a.

Comments?
