No, "noexec" is causing your problem, it is currently an active
attribute of your mount, as shown by the output

''[root at mamdo MPlayer-1.0rc2]# mount | grep 'arkive'
/dev/sda7 on /mnt/arkive type reiserfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,user=dd)''


What it does is what Kevin suspected, basically kills the executable
attribute's power on all files in that filesystem.  That's why you can
run sh configure but not ./configure.

Somehow your mount action is getting the noexec attribute assigned, I
guess maybe it can be udev or some script you mount with or somesuch.

You can do this:

mount /dev/sda7 /mnt/arkive -treiserfs -oremount,rw,nosuid,nodev,user=dd

to effectively remount taking out the "noexec" part.
