Which is what I thought I was doing:

* Modify /etc/fstab
* Run mount
* Mount doesn't give an error, but doesn't mount the correct
filesystem.

Requiring the systemctl-reload is a significant departure from
traditional semantics. I understand that it's been around for a while,
but it's nonetheless disconcerting to find that something so basic and
well-understood has changed.

Surely the mount command could notice that /etc/fstab had changed since
systemd last read it and poke it to do the reload?
