The version in the Universe repo is not that "stable" version. I don't know if the latest is in the backports repo, but I built mine from source I got at the official website (www.ntfs-3g.org). And I didn't encounter the problem you had.

I already mentioned that it came from unofficial repo. On 3/25/07, Zak B.

Claimed?!? I don't reckon that it (i.e., your version of ntfs-3g that you used) ever was, at least for Edgy. The official Edgy repos holds version 20060920-0ubuntu2 of libntfs-3g0, which *is* definitely not the released stable version from the ntfs-3g devs. It was included in the distro (specifically in the Universe section) at the time for convenience, and so that more adventurous users (such as you :P) can pick up to test. Feisty now has the stable (as-its-devs-claimed) version, 1:1.0-2ubuntu1, which I have been using for the past couple of weeks without any pain (even being a FUSE filesystem, it doesn't break my laptop's suspend/hibernate functions.)
