 This is bound to get a problem on other platforms as well. libgsf uses
 statfs to check for a FUSE filesystem. statfs seems to be more or less
 different in nearly every OS. The Gnome developer refused to implement
 the check The Right Way, although I pointed out the code in gnome-vfs,
 which shows how this test is done correctly, see
 
 http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=558253
 
 Maybe someone else with a deeper knowledge of autoconf can handle this?
