I never heard of Wuala before ... but I'm glad that my build resolves your issue. From what I read in your bug report I suppose you were using the official MacFUSE 2.1.5 beta release in combination with Snow Leopard's default 32 bit kernel before, right? >> testing was done by repeatedly copying 100 random data files of different >> file sizes simultaneously to a NTFS formatted volume and comparing the >> copies to the original files afterwards.

It certainly wouldn't do any harm :-) As mentioned before I only did some testing using NTFS-3G so far. It would be good to test the build with other fuse-filesystems. If you are using the default 32 bit kernel the locking mechanisms implemented by Tuxera would not be tested, since they are only used (in fact required) for MacFUSE to work with the 64 bit kernel. It would be nice if someone could test the combination of MacFUSE, Snow Leopard's 64bit kernel and third-party fuse-filesystems.
