The "weirdness" is caused by Windows treating (most) keychain drives
exactly like it treats floppy disks.  IOW, no partitions, just raw on
the device.

I have a USB keychain from HP and it came vfat formated on a partition. 
I have since re-partitioned it and carry around an encrypted partition
on there, in addition to a vfat and an ext2 partition (three total).
