Do you have sd_mod loaded?
try loading it manually or adding

add above usb-storege sd_mod

into /etc/modules.conf

I also managed to make the thingie automount by adding something like

REGISTER ^scsi<something>target0/lun0/part1$ EXEC mount /dev/sda1

to a file included from /etc/devfsd.conf
but I have no GNU/Linux system available here to reproduce the exact syntax.

When I tried supermount I was not able to read several hundred KiB from
the flash reader without replugging it and the system eventually locked up.

I did not find a way to deregister the device after unmounting it so that it
automounts next time it is plugged in. I can do ls -l scsi<something>lun0 which
makes the dev/sda1 go away. I think I can even use eject to do that.
But I did not find a way to make it autoeject when I unmount and unplug it.

I wonder what would be the proper solution for more complex cases where more
than one reader is used, or other scsi(-emulation) drivers are needed. 

I have no idea how multi-card readers would be used as one would probably like
to exhange cards in some slots w/o unplugging the reader.
