I usually mount jffs2 images using bldmtd:

if [ ! -b /dev/mtdblock0 ] ; then
        mknod /dev/mtdblock0 b 31 0 || exit 1
fi

JFFSIMG=$1 # jffs image
LOOP="/dev/loop1" # loop device
MP="/mnt/jfss" # mount po

losetup $LOOP $JFFSIMG || exit 1
sleep 1
modprobe blkmtd device=$LOOP || exit 1
sleep 1
mount -t jffs2 /dev/mtdblock0 $MP || exit 1

It works for me on Debian testing just fine.
