Thanks for catching this. We need a ChangeLog entry to go with the
patch, something like:
2014-11-14 Ma Shimiao <mashimiao.fnst@cn.fujitsu.com>
* manual/sysinfo.texi (addmntent): It is actually MT-Safe,
because the potential race is on the user-supplied stream.
If nobody objects till Monday, I'll check this in on Tuesday along with
the ChangeLog entry above.
Thanks!
