*shudder* or if at all possible maybe you could amend that to:
/dev/hda1 /mnt/c vfat defaults,umask=002,gid=2000 0 0
where gid 2000 is the group ID of the "fat32users" group you'd create
and add everybody to who should have write access to the volume. Sure,
its not guaranteed automatic 'everybody' but there's a lot less
screaming heebejeebies involved too.
