I would personally very much like to see this.
The people who might be able to assist you are Emmanual Dreyfus, CC'd, the NetBSD maintainer, and Kaleb, who has lots of free time on his hands ;)
I jest - I know Kaleb is pretty busy. Hopefully he can spare a few cycles for mentorship.
FWIW, I have looked at this from time to time. It seems that a fusefs-kmod pkg for 9.1-release finally materialized a couple weeks ago. That has been the major impediment to a port to 9.1 anyway, although a port to earlier FreeBSD releases maybe have been possible before now.
Attached is a short patch against master/HEAD that I spent a couple hours creating this morning. It should get you off to a good start. I left contrib/fuse-util as an exercise. ;-) With my patch, everything configured out of the box¹ compiles, except for contrib/fuse-util, which I have left as an exercise.
As far as what remains to be done then, my list would be:
1. port contrib/fuse-util.
2. of the pieces that don't currently auto-configure, explore whether any of them can or should
3. evaluate whether the changes in my patch are actually correct.
4. write /etc/rc.d/ script
4. package it all
5. submit changes in gerrit and get them through review.
6. put a package or set of packages up for download/distribution on ftp.freebsd.org
