I tried the code below:

                mount -n -o remount,noxino / || echo "Remount noxino / failed: 
$?"
                mount -n -o remount,mod:/cow=ro / || echo "Remount /cow(ro) 
failed: $?" && (lsof /cow; lsof /)
                mount -n -o remount,ro /cow || echo "Remount /cow (ro) failed: 
$?"
                mount -n -o remount,ro /

The second command fails, saying / is busy.
   lsof of / shows lots of files.  lsof of /cow shows none.

All the rest of the command succeed, however, and it appears /cow is
properly mounted (ro) and cleaned up.

So, it seems a bit strange that the second, and only the second,
command fails...but the end result is that /cow is clean, so
I guess that is good enough.

If you have more suggestions, I'll give them a try..but if not,
then I'm moving on to other things..will le you know if I find
any strange issues in later testing either way.

Thanks,
Ben
