when doing binds in /etc/fstab, the 'type' field is arbitrary

you could have named it 'i-touch-myself-at-nite' and it would work fine:
# grep touch-myself /etc/fstab
/mnt/space/backup /blah i-touch-myself-at-nite bind 0 0
# mount /blah
# mount | grep touch-myself
/mnt/space/backup on /blah type i-touch-myself-at-nite (rw,bind)

as you can see here, all that matters is that you have 'bind' in the 'opts' 
field
