As you might have noticed via my thread on gentoo-user, I am trying to solve the underlying problem first before revisiting this. Just as a summary for those not following gentoo-user: initially, the external HDD is incorrectly detected as having 512 byte logical blocks. After unplugging it and plugging it back in, it is detected as having 4096 byte logical blocks, after which it can be mounted. See the thread here: http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-user/message/5677e2044aba73c5ac046a2a634f801a.
