`man mount` has the following to say under "-t vfstype":
  "Creating a  file /etc/filesystems can be useful to change the probe order 
(e.g., to try vfat before msdos or ext3 before ext2) or  if  you use  a 
kernel  module  autoloader." ...
" More  than  one type may be specified in a comma separated list."



So, have you tried something like:
pen   -fstype=vfat,ntfs-3g        :/dev/sda1
