What's new in this version:

- Fix race condition when using auto_xattr causing setxattr(2) to fail
- The kernel's fallback mechanism for managing extended attributes is not thread-safe. To address the issue FUSE will no longer set the O_EXCL flag when creating Apple Double files. See osxfuse/osxfuse#354 for details.
- Fix unresponsive 32 bit file systems on 64 bit Macs
- FUSE uses a socket pair to pass the FUSE device file descriptor to the file system process. Control messages created using the CMSG macros in the Mac OS X 10.5 SDK are not properly aligned. This resulted in 32 bit file systems being unresponsive on 64 bit Macs.
- Add support for preferences URL scheme. See osxfuse/prefpane#4 for details
- Fix macOS version check when installing FUSE for macOS
