pyhesiodfs fails to start up on a nonempty /mit.

fuse: mountpoint is not empty
fuse: if you are sure this is safe, use the 'nonempty' mount option

From fuse/README:

nonempty

  Allows mounts over a non-empty file or directory.  By default these
  mounts are rejected (from version 2.3.1) to prevent accidental
  covering up of data, which could for example prevent automatic
  backup.
