hope you don't mind my re-re-assigning back to you even though I'm not a
debian-developer.

It's not a pmount thing, rather gnome-volume-manager has pmount
hardcoded into it:

josh@spleen:~$  strings /usr/bin/gnome-volume-manager | grep pmount
/usr/bin/pmount-hal %h
josh@spleen:~$

and it doesn't let the user pass options to pmount. Also, the
gnome-volume-properties dialog has no option to set to mount volumes
read-only. This is a bug with how gnome-volume-manager uses pmount, not
with pmount itself.

I think instead of reassigning, you should mark as "forwarded to
upstream". I already filed the upsteam bug for you:
