I just tried this on 7-CURRENT amd64 with up-to-date ports.  I do not
see this behavior.  What other HAL configuration have you done (e.g.
extra fdi files)?  Can you try to isolate which process is trying to
mount these file systems (e.g. using ktrace or truss)?  It is probably
happening via hald, but something is telling hald to do this.  My guess
is gnome-volume-manager.
