There's no need for that, it's already handled by the rc.d scripts.

Fuse-based filesystems should be mounted with the "late" option, so
they get mounted after the kernel module is loaded. 

You might also need a patch so the mount can find the correct mount_*
executable.I think it's needed in 7.0, I'm not sure about 7-stable and
current.
