So I formated the usb stick with ntfs and tested again.
$ mount /dev/sdf1 /mnt/stick
This time it recoginizes ntfs without -t option.

Hi Hughe
I believe this is not a bug, I think the the usb stick needed to be
re-formatted.

I believe the file system was not really fat32.

Now do the opposite. format the stick with fat32 and try to mount it. I
bet it will work. If it does not, feel free to reopen the bug.
