You are trying to mount an extended partition, which is impossible.
What you really want to do is to mount the logical drives that are
_inside_ the extended partition. The "logical" drives are numbered
from ad0s5 and so on, so you should do:
# mount -t msdos /dev/ad0s5 /mnt/win_d

And where I say partition, I mean slice ;)
