This still doesn't work correctly, only now after unmounting/mounting
the top layer the directory appears empty:

uml:~# mount -oloop -r ext3.img /mnt/img/
uml:~# losetup /dev/loop2  ovl.img  
uml:~# /host/store/git/e2fsprogs/misc/mke2fs -O whiteout,fallthru /dev/loop2

This filesystem will be automatically checked every 24 mounts or
180 days, whichever comes first.  Use tune2fs -c or -i to override.
