+/*
+ DESCRIPTION
+ The cu_mount_checkoption() function is a replacement of
+ char *hasmntopt(const struct mntent *mnt, const char *opt).
+ In fact hasmntopt() just looks for the first occurrence of the
+ characters at opt in mnt->mnt_opts. cu_mount_checkoption()
+ checks for the *option* keyword in line, starting at the
+ first character of line or after a ','.
+
+ If full is not 0 then also the end of keyword has to match
+ either the end of line or a ',' after keyword.
+
+ RETURN VALUE
+ The cu_mount_checkoption() function returns a pointer into
+ string line if a match of keyword is found. If no match is
+ found cu_mount_checkoption() returns NULL.
+
+ NOTES
+ Do *not* try to free() the pointer which is returned! It is
+ just part of the string line.
+
+ full should be set to 0 when matching options like: rw, quota,
+ noatime. Set full to 1 when matching options like: loop=,
+ gid=, commit=.
+
+ EXAMPLES
+ If line is "rw,usrquota,grpquota", keyword is "quota", NULL
+ will be returned (independend of full).
+
+ If line is "rw,usrquota,grpquota", keyword is "usrquota",
+ a pointer to "usrquota,grpquota" is returned (independend
+ of full).
+
+ If line is "rw,loop=/dev/loop1,quota", keyword is "loop="
+ and full is 0, then a pointer to "loop=/dev/loop1,quota"
+ is returned. If full is not 0 then NULL is returned. But
+ maybe you might want to try cu_mount_getoptionvalue()...

+
+char *cu_mount_getoptionvalue(char *line, char *keyword);
+/*
+ DESCRIPTION
+ The cu_mount_getoptionvalue() function can be used to grab
+ a VALUE out of a mount option (line) like:
+ loop=VALUE
+ whereas "loop=" is the keyword.
+
+ RETURN VALUE
+ If the cu_mount_getoptionvalue() function can find the option
+ keyword in line, then memory is allocated for the value of
+ that option and a pointer to that value is returned.
+
+ If the option keyword is not found, cu_mount_getoptionvalue()
+ returns NULL;
+
+ NOTES
+ Internally it calls cu_mount_checkoption(), then it
+ allocates memory for VALUE and returns a pointer to that
+ string. So *do not forget* to free() the memory returned
+ after use!!!
