The version's 2.11-2.1ubuntu1. When I checked the drive with chkdsk in Windows, it found at least one error on the drive. I guess my point isn't that there's a problem with FAT32 disk checking in Ubuntu, though - it's that the partition gets scanned at boot by default, which will take a long time for any decent-sized FAT partition even if there aren't any errors, and I assumed the installer was only supposed to set up fstab so only filesystems which can be checked very quickly (like ext3 or reiserfs) are scanned at boot.
