Yow! That's weird. You might try:
    # grep 'May 10' /var/log/messages | grep mount
to see if any errors show up there. Another possibility is that somehow
non-printing control characters got into your fstab. You might try
retyping new copies of the pertinent lines, and deleting the old ones,
or look at the file in a hex editor if you are curious. But this is kind
of grasping at straws.
