Hi,
I figured out what is happening in my case. When no filesystem is specified,
pmount tries many of them until the correct one is hopefully found. The first
tried filesystem is udf, however, the usb storage that is causing mount to fail
is formatted as ext4. Unfortunately, when pmount tries to mount the ext4 device
as udf, mount does not gracefully exit with error, instead, it hangs badly.
By specifying the filesystem to pmount ('pmount -t ext4 ...'), though, mount
works as intended.
