Perhaps you have an old version of mount_msdos. It might not work, since the mount family is one of the main areas where -current breaks binary compatibility. Similarly for the msdos module, except breakage of binary compatibility is normal for all modules. Getting a different result the second time (after loading a module) looks more like a problem with the module than with the mount program.
