Found it!
Mountd, the daemon responsible for mounting USB disks, is clearing out
/tmp/mounts when it starts:
http://trac.fonosfera.org/fon-ng/browser/trunk/fon/mountd/src/lib/autofs.c#L217
We should be able to rewrite this to use find -xdev -delete instead of
rm -rf, which should take care not to cross filesystem boundaries, so it
shouldn't delete anything from mounted filesystems.
I just hacked up something to this effect, but it doesn't seem to be
working yet. I'll have a closer look in the morning and keep you posted.
Regards,
Matthijs Kooijman
