On Debian and Ubuntu /dev/pts is mounted with noexec,nosuid,gid=tty,mode=0620.

In Debian it is done via the mountdevsubfs sysv init script, in Ubuntu
it is done by mountall.
On both systems /dev/pts is *not* defined in /etc/fstab.

I guess Wulf's point isn't, that options in /etc/fstab are not applied
but rather that systemd should mount /dev/pts with those options.

Cheers,
Michael
