Odd bug we've found: when volname or fsname contains the substring
'union' AND daemon_timeout is set, mount_fusefs fails with
"mount_fusefs: invalid value for argument daemon_timeout"

After quite a bit of investigation, this appears to be the only
combination of options which produce an error. We rooted through the
code for a while and don't notice anything obvious that could even
potentially cause this. I had hoped we could submit a patch and help
out a bit, but I've been scratching my head as to the cause for a few
hours and don't have any solid leads.

To replicate the issue, I offer this tiny patch to HelloFS. I just
modify volname to contain 'union' and add a daemon_timeout option. In
other tests I've run it appears that ordering of options does not
matter, nor does adjacency.
