You will have to find a meaning for that one! 

The confusion was expected, as we now have two high level FUSE API. Here
is a little sketch that may be worth a long explanation

            FUSE filesystems        more FUSE filesystems
                    ^                                      ^
                     |                                      |
   high-level FUSE interface                |
         |                    |                             |
       librefuse      libfuse ----> low level FUSE interface
         |                    |  
         |            kernel level FUSE interface(*) ---> glusterfs
         |                    |
         |                 perfused
         |                    |
         |                 libperfuse
         |                    |
         +-- libpuffs ---+
                   |
                kernel

(*) implemented in userland on NetBSD. glusterfs is the only filesystem
I have been seenusing it directly, but there might be others.
