Strange. There is no such string in busybox source anywhere.
However, there is such string in util-linux mount.

Check that you indeed use busybox's mount (use mount --help).
Run mount with -r -vvv: "dry-run" + "verbose",
and port the output.
Run mount under strace: strace -o LOG mount ....
and post LOG file.
