Confirmed that usefree fixes this. I manually mounted one of my USB
drives with usefree, and df didn't hang.

However, when I popped open gconf-editor, and updated
/system/storage/default_options/vfat/mount_options to have the
additional option "usefree", I get an error window saying "Invalid mount
option when attempting to mount the volume ..."

So I guess g-v-m needs to be updated to know that this is a valid
option?
