Hi,

Thanks for the release. 

I have a general question regarding FUSE. Why do all the tests pass on a
regular ext3 file system while there are quite a lot of errors (~80%
success) when run on top of the fuse example file system as found in the
fuse tarball? I thought the fuse filesystem just passes every access to 
the underlying file system. So what's causing the failures? Or am i doing
something wrong?

Thanks,
Marc
