 ## NOTES
 
@@ -51,10 +69,13 @@ Note that **fusefile** opens the nominated source file(s) before bind
 mounting. With the fuse option __-ononempty__ it will bind over an
 non-empty file, which may be useful. The source file descriptors
 remain open, but the source fragments are not recomputed. If a source
-file changes or reduces in size, anything may happen.
