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.
