I don't know the answer, but I had the same problem recently and made
a workaround, although it may be difficult to apply if you're not
using the fuse-lowlevel interface.

In my case, I was debugging a perl wrapper for the fuse-lowlevel
interface.  In the lowlevel interface, you create the mount (which
calls fusermount and produces a file descriptor), then pass the file
descriptor on to the fuse-lowlevel code.  Since only the mount part
was having a problem, I made a simple perl server which did the mount
and then proxied all messages to any connected client.  That way the
client calls the server for the mount step and then uses the fd to the
server for the rest of the lowlevel interface.  Then I have no
problems with valgrind.

Just an idea.  Wasn't too hard to make the proxy server, which might
be faster then figuring out how to fix valgrind if you're stuck on
this step.  My code is at home, and I'm not, so I'm not able to post
it at the moment.
