Nope (as in no output rather than not installed).

Used to be, I commented it out when I realised it wasn't loading.

It was
/dev/hdb1       /mnt/hdb1       ext3    defaults,users  0       2

amancha:~# fsck /dev/hdb1
fsck 1.39-WIP (31-Dec-2005)
e2fsck 1.39-WIP (31-Dec-2005)
common: clean, 10811/24428544 files, 17491485/48839600 blocks

I assume that's a yes? Truth be told I haven't used fsck all that often.
