Hi! Thank you very much for your fast and detailed reply. Having a much clearer picture on what happens it was possible to find out what was actually going wrong. Mainly thinking that the Finder will use ._ if present also on a HFS volume led me to the wrong conclusions concerning my tests with LoopBack.
In fact the ._ files created with the LoopBack example DO work on other filesystems not having extended attributes. Just my own ._ files did not. The root cause was a bug in my own writing code that only affected ._files and was furthermore invisible when accessing the files through the fuse volume itself. (One should never assume anything on what the Finder does when accessing the filesystem... ;-)) Thanks a lot for your help, you saved my day!
