I can confirm that this isn't an issue with all HFS+ devices, as I'm able to mount an external hard drive with HFS+ filesystems without any issues.

That also addresses DrKay's concerns that HFS+ support may have dropped out of the kernel (I would think that dropping HFS support would be bigger news :p ).

I wouldn't really consider reformatting a 160gb iPod and copying all of my music back onto it a "workaround", especially when a kernel downgrade sounds like it would be easier.

I'm guessing this will be addressed with a kernel release in the near future though. In the meantime, I'll settle for listening to music on my iPod instead of my laptop.
