Just checked, and mtab is not a symlink. It is a plain text file.

Just tried takinga backup of mtab and symlinking /proc/mounts onto
/etc/mtab yields no different results when trying `/etc/init.d/dbus
start`. Is this something I fix somewhere else or maybe I just need to
reboot the system after symlinking.
