A bit of theory about mount_fusefs command line options:

=46rom man:

mount_fusefs [-A] [-S] [-v] [-D fuse_daemon] [-O daemon_opts]
                  [-s special] [-m node] [-h] [-V] [-o option ...]
                  special node [fuse_daemon ...]

The special argument will normally be treated as the path of the
special file to mount.

Thus, you can define special using the -s option or the position in the
argument string.

But even if special is defined via a key, mount_fusefs will still try
to take its value from the first unnamed (without a key) command line
argument.

So=20

mount_fusefs /dev/fuse /mnt ntfs-3g /dev/da0s1 /mnt - OK
mount_fusefs -s /dev/fuse -m /mnt -D ntfs-3g -O "/dev/da0s1 /mnt" - OK
mount_fusefs -s /dev/fuse -m /mnt -D ntfs-3g -O /dev/da0s1 /mnt - ERROR
( mount_fusefs thinks that /mnt is special )
