Your setup may be be broken somehow. I guess your / mount point is twice in /etc/mtab with ext3 and with a bind mount. Once you get rid of this, your mlocate will work again. Do you have a special fstab, initrd hooks or something else that would explain it? Maybe it is a leftover from an earlier install and will work once you remove that line.
