Thanks, and agreed!

>From looking at the changelogs, it looks like the feature you are referring to
was introduced in fusefs back in 2005.  So it probably isn't a recent upstream
change causing this, but instead something with the kernel fuse module
introduced in FreeBSD 10.x.

I stumbled on a resolved PR (bug #192563) for sysutils/fusefs-encfs that deals
with the same issue, and has a very similar patch to the one I submitted (that
would have saved me some time!).

There is another PR (bug #187485) against sysutils/fusefs-wdfs with a similar
patch, but that port was dropped so it was never applied.

So we know that this applies to all fusefs modules running under 10.x, and that
other modules have hacked in a create -> mknod+open wrapper to get things
working (just to confirm that it is a sane workaround).

Agreed about figuring out where the real issue is coming from, I will do more
research as I can't find the source of the problem in the kernel source at a
glance.  I should probably file a bug against the fuse kernel module.
