fuse-utils fails to install inside a chroot

Bug Description

I tried updating my edgy chroot while running debian sid. It failed as follows:

Setting up fuse-utils (2.5.3-2.1ubuntu1) ...
creating fuse device...
./MAKEDEV: don't know how to make device "fuse"
dpkg: error processing fuse-utils (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1

I think the problem is that /var/lib/dpkg/info/fuse-utils.postinst runs "cd /dev; ./MAKEDEV fuse", but /dev is bind-mounted from debian, and so /dev/MAKEDEV is the debian version, not the ubuntu version.
