problem unmounting ntfs volumes on Mavericks

[tvs]

I've installed ntfs-3g + osxfuse using homebrew to get write support to NTFS volumes. It works well, but when I unmount the volumes, the folder under /Volumes that is created when the volume mount is NOT being deleted. That causes that, the next time I mount the same volume, another folder is created with a number appended.

Here's the content of /Volumes when I mount a USB stick named 'toshiro':

lrwxr-xr-x 1 root    admin    1 Feb 26 23:35 Macintosh HD -> //
drwxrwxrwx 1 toshiro staff 4096 Feb 26 23:18 toshiro/

This is the contents of /Volumes AFTER I unmount the volume:

lrwxr-xr-x  1 root admin   1 Feb 26 23:35 Macintosh HD -> //
d--x--x--x+ 3 root admin 102 Feb 26 23:37 toshiro/

This is what happens if I mount again the same USB stick:

lrwxr-xr-x  1 root    admin    1 Feb 26 23:35 Macintosh HD -> //
d--x--x--x+ 3 root    admin  102 Feb 26 23:37 toshiro/
drwxrwxrwx  1 toshiro staff 4096 Feb 26 23:52 toshiro 1/


Is it possible to fix this somehow?

I have the same issue with the same set up. Even internal drives have the same problem. In order to prevent the number changing, I added the drives to /etc/fstab as a workaround. The mount_ntfs program complains in the /var/log/mount-ntfs-3g.log file though.
