I note that Linux already has the 'sysv' kernel module which supports System V short-filename file systems. Enhancing that for V7 and early BSD may be a faster route to having such file system images be mountable. (But perhaps less fun than a FUSE filesystem that uses original Unix code.) An enhanced version of the sysv kernel module that supports filesystems from the AT&T Unix PC / 3B1 is available at https://github.com/dgesswein/s4-3b1-pc7300. Arnold
