I have exactly the same problem. When I plug in a vfat external usb HDD, Nautilus freezes during about 30 secondes before I can do something (except using other programs like firefox). The window of hdd content opens, but nothing appears and I have the "waiting cursor".
I've attached a backtrace file, but nothing happens, it's not a crash. I had to stop manually the gdb process (Ctrl+C) when "continuing".
I don't do anything special to mount my drive, I just plug it in.
It does that with both 2.6.22-9 and 2.6.22-10 kernels on 32 and 64 bits.
