 Such strange permissions on mount points break more than just statfs:
 non-root users will not be able to access .. in /bak. This is documented
 in the CAVEATS section of mount(8).
 
 In fact, find(1) aborts for me because of that (7.2-PRERELEASE).
 find: fts_read: Permission denied
 Your patch seems only helpful if you -prune away the problematic
 directories.
 
 I also notice that your patch does not apply because all tabs have been
 expanded to spaces.
