This is fixed in current hardy. I created a test file /etc/hal/fdi/policy/test.fdi with

--- snip ---
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!-- -*- SGML -*- -->

<deviceinfo version="0.2">
  <device>
    <match key="block.is_volume" bool="true">
      <merge key="volume.ignore" type="bool">true</merge>
    </match>
  </device>
</deviceinfo>
--- snip ---

When I saved it, hal's inotify magic instantly picked it up: I plugged in my USB stick, and it wasn't mounted (lshal confirmed that volume.ignore was true). I remove it again, unplug/replug, it's mounted again.

So I'd say that /etc/hal/fdi is parsed correctly now.
