Problem with ntfs-3g

So I just submitted ticket https://trac.macports.org/ticket/45947 for ntfs-3g, but it is "nomaintainers". I can't get it to actually load a kernel driver to get the user fuse stuff going, and mount_ntfs never gets called. The port notes make reference to stuff needed to make fuse4x work, but it
