I haven't gotten around to doing that. So if we didn't make a mistake, we changed bup to use int as suggested by this thread, and now it appears to crash at least sometimes when FUSE is involved: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/bup-list/QxcHthbLHjw Is the problem (you mentioned above) that FUSE always expects a long, and if so, is there a way to tell that we're talking to FUSE?
