Oops, missed that.  Good spotting!

And there's more shit that unionfs-testsuite didn't discover (not even
involving multiple layers):

rm -rf /lower /upper /work
mkdir -p /lower/a/b/c /upper /work
mount -t overlay overlay -oupperdir=/upper,lowerdir=/lower,workdir=/work /mnt
mv /mnt/a /mnt/z
mv /mnt/z/b /mnt/q
ls /mnt/q
umount /mnt
mount -t overlay overlay -oupperdir=/upper,lowerdir=/lower,workdir=/work /mnt
ls /mnt/q
umount /mnt

Next update coming up...

Thanks,
Miklos
