This errer indeed got re-introduced (if it was fixed according to
#205081). It affects Precise, now.
$ apt-cache policy ntfs-3g
ntfs-3g:
Installed: 1:2012.1.15AR.1-1ubuntu1
Candidate: 1:2012.1.15AR.1-1ubuntu1
Version table:
*** 1:2012.1.15AR.1-1ubuntu1 0
500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
$ ntfs-3g --version
ntfs-3g 2012.1.15AR.1 external FUSE 28
As discussed in #205081, ntfs-3g should use *internal* FUSE libraries,
instead.

Title:
ntfs-3g does not respect fstab options
Status in “ntfs-3g” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Binary package hint: ntfs-3g
Please install ntfs-3g as setuid so the options 'users' and 'user' can
be used on /etc/fstab.
From the ntfs-3g man page:
"If ntfs-3g is set setuid-root then non-root users will be also
able to mount block devices or via /etc/fstab if the ’user’ or
’users’ mount(8) option is specified. The ntfs-3g process drops
the root privilege after successful mount and runs unprivileged
afterwards."
