"Other callers" include such as busybox, sash and uClinux. I'm not sure about
such as Perl, but Perl is hardly in the same class as the other three.
Admittedly, a library is probably the right way to do it - libmount or some
such thing.

Whilst I might be happy to, I'm not sure I can speak for everyone. You can
also use i386 mount on x86_64 for instance; and possibly s390 on s390x,
sparc32 on sparc64 and mips32 on mips64.
