It works fine for me as 'sd0' on a -current system.  On a 2.0.1
(GENERIC) system  I just popped it into I get this:
umass0 at uhub0 port 1 configuration 1 interface 0
umass0: Apple iPod, rev 2.00/10.01, addr 2
umass0: using SCSI over Bulk-Only
umass0: no buffer memory

I guess I need to test this out a bit more and possibly file a PR.  I
assumed it work on 2.x since it worked on my -current system. :)

I was able to make a copy of the drive (with 'dd') and copy files on
it without a problem.  It is a FAT32 file system, but iTunes creates a
number of directories to index the files and such, so you can't just
copy MP3 files onto it.  Well once you've loaded something with iTunes
you might be able to add stuff easily to one of the directories, I
haven't test that out.
