You probably have some additional settings somewhere (where?).

[terrapin] 02:52:29 ~$ sudo mount -t vfat /dev/fd0 /mnt
[terrapin] 02:52:55 ~$ sudo touch /mnt/a
[terrapin] 02:52:58 ~$ ls -l /mnt
total 0
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root            0 Jan  3 14:52 a
[terrapin] 02:53:00 ~$ sudo mount -o remount,noexec /mnt
[terrapin] 02:53:12 ~$ ls -l /mnt/
total 0
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root            0 Jan  3 14:52 a
[terrapin] 02:53:14 ~$ mount
[SKIP]
/dev/fd0 on /mnt type vfat (rw,noexec)

[terrapin] 02:55:27 ~$ sudo umount /mnt
[terrapin] 02:56:20 ~$ sudo mount -t vfat -o noexec /dev/fd0 /mnt
[terrapin] 02:56:31 ~$ ls -l /mnt/a 
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root            0 Jan  3 14:52 /mnt/a

Please show output for 'mount' command after mounting floppy.
