blown fuse?

I hate bugs like this :-).

I tried to mount a truecrypt filesystem (http://www.truecrypt.org/)
and kept getting an error about a write that failed to write the
requested amount of data.

Truecrypt uses a strange and wondrous combination of fuse and
loop devices to access the encrypted image, so with all that
going on, I decided to try rebooting before I panicked completely.

Rebooting worked fine. Now I'm left wondering what was busted.

Anyone else seen any mysterious errors with fuse or loop devices?

I couldn't even begin to imagine what to report this against
if I wanted to try and bugzilla it :-).
