Overayfs is essentially a rewrite of UnionMount (implemented in VFS
layer), to be a filesystem. They both have several unresolved issues by
design "name-based union", and I have pointed out on LKML several times.
For example, here is a URL of my last post about it.

Just out of curious, I remember a guy in CERN had posted a message to
aufs-users ML.
http://www.mail-archive.com/aufs-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg04020.html
Are you co-working with him? Or CERN totally stopped using aufs?
