So, is he using one of these, with a disk rotor in it for the rear brake?

Brake doesnt work rolling backwards i guess, which is of little concern but will still be odd. Must put a fair bit of force through the freehub when you grab it though.

That would be my guess.
On a fixed gear I imagine he would mainly use it as a sort of drag brake

I initially didn't like the idea of putting that much force through a freehub, but realistically braking is probably not more torque than a hard start in a low gear (think wheelie). It might fail eventually but should be good for a few years I'd imagine

There's a CXC on radavist with 6 bolt cog on the disc mount and problemsolvers 6 bolt adapter for the disc brake on the freehub body.
