Yes you did, and I very much appreciate that. But as I said, I don't
actually *want* to learn to use FreeBSD. Neither on my own by studying
the web, nor with instructions by email or phone.

If the FreeBSD community is interested in getting libfuse in a better
shape, then I'd like to see someone install the master branch, try to
compile it, and answers questions like the above on their own.

No hard feelings if no one is interested in that. But please understand
that in that case I'd rather invest my time in something else as well.

Best,
-Nikolaus
