It occured to me that there mustn't necessarily be a userspace mount 
tool.  A peek into /proc/filesystems hints at the possibility of pohmelfs :

[r...@host_166 ~]# cat /proc/filesystems | grep poh
nodev   pohmel

Cross-referencing then, then against /etc/filesystems, we discover a 
discrepancy :

[r...@host_166 pohtest]# cat /etc/filesystems | grep poh
[r...@host_166 pohtest]#

By adding « nodev pohmel » to /etc/filesystems, mount successfully 
recognised the pohmel type :

[r...@host_166 ~]# mount -t pohmel -o idx=1 none pohtest/
[r...@host_166 ~]# df | grep poh
none                 154590376  10007348 144583028   7% /root/pohtest

[r...@host_166 ~]# ls pohtest/
pohmel_test

So, there we go - all solved.

For reference, this was all performed on a fresh installation of Fedora 
8, so YMMV.

Cheers !
