fuse4bsd shouldn't provide fuse-utils because it's not completely
equivalent to this package.  There are two important differences:

- A package may require fuse-utils because it relies specifically on
the semantics of fusermount.

- A package may have a versioned dependency, in which case an
alternate dependency is still needed.
