This is a problem with libsysfs. It won't be fixed for the next stable
Debian version, as this would require way too much work at this point
close to the release. I plan to fix it, however: I will soon get rid of
the libsysfs interface, that does not bring much to pmount and write a
simple-yet-functional interface for /sys. But that won't happen before a
while.
Thanks for your interest in pmount,
Vincent
