Mount problems



After the recent update in testing, mount is behaving differently (for
me). My /etc/fstab has the following lines:

  # /etc/fstab: static file system information.
  #
  /dev/hda3	/		ext3	defaults,errors=remount-ro	0	1
  /dev/hda8	none		swap	sw			0	0
  proc		/proc		proc	defaults			0	0
  /dev/fd0	/floppy		auto	defaults,user,noauto		0	0
  /dev/cdrom	/cdrom		iso9660	defaults,ro,user,noauto		0	0
  /dev/hda7   /home   ext3  defaults  0 1
  /dev/hda6   /home/software   ext3  defaults  0 1
  /dev/hda1	/dosc		vfat	defaults 
  /dev/hda5	/dosd		vfat	defaults 

As a regular user, I could traverse the directories under /dosc and
/dosd. Under the new version, the directory is mounted with no execute
permission for group and others. I tried mounting with a different gid
value, but could not succeed in mounting /dosd as rwxr-xr-x. How can I
get that behaviour?
