For mounting I used thunar-volman, just checked the option "Mount removable
drives when hot-plugged".

The output of "umount /mymountpoint; echo $?" is:
"umount: /mymountpoint: No such file or directory"
In place of /mymountpoint there was an actual mount point of course and it was
mounted, I could browse its content.

I use Manjaro, and the package providing exFAT is different, though I don't
know what is the difference in its internals. It is "exfat-utils  1.2.5-1" and
the files are following:

/usr/bin/dumpexfat
/usr/bin/exfatfsck
/usr/bin/exfatlabel
/usr/bin/fsck.exfat
/usr/bin/mkexfatfs
/usr/bin/mkfs.exfat
/usr/bin/mount.exfat
/usr/bin/mount.exfat-fuse
/usr/share/man/man8/dumpexfat.8.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/exfatfsck.8.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/exfatlabel.8.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/mkexfatfs.8.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/mount.exfat-fuse.8.gz
