guestfish or libguestfs don't support filesystems. It's whatever

exFAT is apparently not supported by the Linux kernel, but there is a
FUSE driver for it called exfat-fuse (as you found out).
So if you add exfat-fuse and maybe exfat-utils to the appliance,
it should work, ie:
# echo exfat-fuse > /usr/lib*/guestfs/supermin.d/zz-exfat
# echo exfat-utils >> /usr/lib*/guestfs/supermin.d/zz-exfat
(Note the package names might be different. Apparently in RPMfusion
it's called fuse-exfat.)
Awesome! Thanks very much Rich. That worked perfectly!
In Fedora 24 x64:
# echo fuse-exfat > /usr/lib64/guestfs/supermin.d/zz-exfat
# echo exfat-utils >> /usr/lib64/guestfs/supermin.d/zz-exfat
In Linux Mint 18 x64:
# echo exfat-fuse > /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/guestfs/supermin.d/zz-exfat
# echo exfat-utils >> /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/guestfs/supermin.d/zz-exfat
$ guestfish -a disk.img
<fs> run
<fs> list-filesystems
/dev/sda1: exfat
<fs> mount /dev/sda1 /
<fs> ls /
foo
bar
baz
etc
Gratefully,
Miles
