I can confirm it does.  hal-0.5.7.1 is broken though in regards to
automounting the card when it's inserted (for me anyway).  I reverted
back to hal-0.5.7.  You may also have to load the mmc_block module.  I
did this by creating /etc/modprobe.d/sdhci with the contents:

install sdhci /sbin/modprobe mmc_block ; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install sdhci
remove sdhci /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove sdhci ; /sbin/modprobe -r mmc_block
