It definitely was mounted MNT_SUIDDIR and the directory was +s.
Two things come to my mind:
1. I mounted MNT_SUIDDIR option with "mount -o suiddir,update"
   not at the system boot or umount->mount. But I don't
   actually believe this is the reason as the mount command
   is so widely used so it would come out before if it had
   such error.
2. I did some stupid mistake (overlooked or misinterpreted something)
   while testing or my system is broken somewhere else.
   I'll investigate this in the evening when I come back home.
In the latter case, I am sorry for the noise.
