(about union mounts on 3.1 not returning all files with an 'ls' in 3.1
while it did in 3.0)

i just experienced the above today while trying diskless, and while ls
only seems to return the entries for the topmost directory, files are
accessible if you know the name. no idea if this is of any help.

on a related subject; i noticed that using mount_null on a directory
with device entries (e.g. still in the diskless case, say /foo/dev is
an mfs partition with device entries, and i do a mount_null /foo/dev
/dev ) causes very bad effects such as crashing  the system when i
start X. ideas about this as well ?
