Comment(by anatol.pomozov@…):

 > but am not yet able to mount a filesystem
 What filesystem you are trying to mount? What error it shows? What "grep
 fuse4x /var/log/system.log" shows?

 > does it support Leopard systems?
 Currently no - there is an issue related to setuid binaries that does not
 allow to use fuse4x on 10.5. It has been fixed in repository and the next
 release should work fine on Leopard. But the main problem is that I do not
 have 10.5 to test fuse4x changes, if we want to mark fuse4x as "supported
 on 10.5" there should be people that check fuse4x on this OS.

 > I noticed the library installs as libfuse4x.dylib rather than libfuse
 The idea is to make fuse4x and macfuse coexist together on the same
 computer.

 > There's at least one port that will fail to build because it's looking
 for libfuse directly rather than asking pkgconfig
 pkg-config seems much better solution. For example package file also
 includes compiler flags. In any case that port can be fixed later when its
 moving to fuse4x.
