In theory :D, the patches for getting it working were merged a while back,
so the "normal" everyday tarball is supposed to compile fine.

There is a port for it around somewhere, too though I've been on leave until
recently and not caught up with where that's at.  Craig Butler (CC'd) is the
guy in the know about that. :)

We also submitted a patch for FreeBSD's fuse module a few months ago, but it
doesn't seem to have been looked over yet. :(

Does that help? :)
