Then you've never used noexec on normal filesystems (after all, _that_
is the intended use - prohibit execution of binaries from potentially
unsafe place, and in that case you are interested in all mode bits, so
you want them to be reported). Try to remount some normal fs noexec
(_not_ one that contains mount(8), or you'll have really big trouble
on hands). Then look at it - exec bits are still there and they
are still reported.
