The current version of the hardy kernel (2.6.24-19.34) still does not
enforce the 'default permissions' mount option for fuse mounted
filesystems.

I'm using glusterfs which relies upon the 'default permissions' option
to do file mode checking, and at the moment any user can write in any
directory, remove and overwrite files owned by root and generally wreak
havoc.

All that is needed to fix the bug is to remove the word 'int' from
fs/fuse/dir.c around line 906 in the kernel, as described in the patch
above

Any chance of getting that patch merged into the hardy kernel?
