There is a recent thread here that is related to this topic.  See
http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-users/browse_thread/thread/2d30b8e48d49f8a6/7452f78e33910ffc?lnk=gst&q=mount+fstab#7452f78e33910ffc

I can't think of a mechanism by which Puppet might check whether a
filesystem is mounted that will notice stale mounts, so my expectation
would be that Puppet doesn't notice them.  Puppetlabs would probably
be willing to entertain a feature request, however, especially if you
can suggest a suitable implementation strategy.
