hal does not clean up after unmount

Couple of days ago i noticed that hald stopped removing old directories from
/media and /etc/fstab

After i plug in my camera it creates /media/SONY_MMS and an entry in 
/etc/fstab.
Unpluggin the camera and plugging it back in creates /media/SONY_MMS1 
and fstab entry for it
and so on. Same goes for my iPod. /media/usbdisk, /media/usbdisk1, 
/media/usbdisk2.
You get the idea... Does anyone know how to fix that ?

i am running
sid with gnome2 from experimental
kernel   2.6.8.1 (2.6.9 is having some weird problems with my ide burner 
or /dev/ub/a )
hal        0.4.0-1
g-v-m   1.0.2-4


This gets written to syslog every 5 seconds with 2.6.9
Not related to the question above though.
Is my burner dying ?
