I've been pondering this.  I wonder if it would be possible to set the NTFS 
partition as a Samba share, then then mount that share with smbmount.  So in 
smb.conf, you might have something like:

[NTFS]
(share definitions)

then you could

mount -t smbfs //localhost/NTFS (options)

I haven't tried it, but it makes sense to me that this would be possible.
