Could you tell me if FreeBSD's fuse module supports any kind of ioctl on
files or directories? I am struggling to get the Linux example to work
under FreeBSD. Issuing the ioctl always fails with "Inappropriate ioctl
for device".

Secondly, am I right to assume that in FreeBSD, FUSE filesystems can
only be mounted in directories (but not files)? Under Linux, the
mountpoint can also be a file.

Thanks!
