This seems to be confirmed by the very old bug report:
https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/6

Well, the feature is there, it's still a pity that there is no
shared API for this feature between the various mount implementations.

Maybe busybox/klibc should learn --move instead... but it would not hurt
if util-linux supported "mount -o move" without documenting it (or with
a warning saying that it's only a compat shim and that the recommended
call is mount --move).
