The included fuse.py module includes a single-line bug fix to the fuse.py file
included with Ubuntu's Python 2.6 package for the method Timespec.__init__():

    480c480
    <     def __init__(self, name, **kw):
    ---
    >     def __init__(self, **kw):

During initial development I used the following resources:

 - http://linux.die.net/man/2/path_resolution
 - /usr/include/fuse/fuse.h :-(
