I'm adding Mathias Brodal, hal maintainer, in the CC: field because I guess
it's a hal issue, but I'm not sure. It may be a problem with the new fdi
provided by hal 0.5.10, or something like that. 

But I tried to use pmount-hal (wich would check hal policies before mount) and
it works fine. So I'm a bit lost.
Mathias, do you have informations about a possible regression on hal
concerning usb mounting? If you need information about devices (lshal, logs
etc.) please ask.
