Here you say "mount /dev/sdb1 on a mount point 
/media/Philips_External_Hard_Disk when file systems are mounted in a
startup sequence".  For a removable at least 'noauto' is missing
there.

That is what you are saying above with "defaults".

Trying to "recycle" mount points below /media you are getting into a
food-fight with hal and gnome-mount.  Regardless of possible
outcomes this is surely unhealthy.  You should really look at what
'man gnome-mount' has to say (and that may include "SEE ALSO"
section).  At least some information is there.

If your goal is to pass automatically additional options to mount
then with nfts-3g you are in luck.  You can use for that a
/system/storage/default_options/ntfs-3g gconf key.

It looks like that your wounds are self-inflicted.
