I am sorry about the format of my messages. I have modified it, but it does not 
seem to take.  If you still cannot see this message well again, I will switch 
to a different mail app. 

To clarify things:

Rhel 6.1 kernel 2.6.32-131.21 with aufs2-standalone.tree-32-20100621 in which 
the mount.aufs is a shell script <- works well
Rhel 6.2 kernel 2.6.32-220.13 with aufs2-standalone.tree-32-20100621 kernel 
panics at the mount.aufs command RIP statfs_by_dentry
Rhel 6.3 kernel 2.6.32-279 with aufs2.1-standalone.tree-32-20110801 fails on 
the open(/dev/tty) as indicated in the strace

The C runtime environment is the same on all.
Mount.aufs is statically linked for Rhel 6.3.

I am wondering if the problem has to do with the error I received when I tried 
using a different compiler when building the rhel 6.3 kernel:

ccl:warnings being treated as errors
fs/aufs/super.c: In function au_statfs_sum
fs/aufs/super.c:325: error: passing argument 1 of vfs_statfs from incompatible 
pointer type
include/linux/fs.h:1867: note: expected struct path * but argument is of type 
struct dentry *

This same error is also in super.c function aufs.statfs.

This is the fs.h header file:
Rhel 6.1 kernel: linux/include/linux/fs.h:extern int vfs_statfs(struct dentry 
*, struct kstatfs *);
Rhel 6.3 kernel: linux/include/linux/fs.h:extern int vfs_statfs(struct path *, 
struct kstatfs *);
