Ok.
Reading git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-precise.git,
unlinkeat(2) returns EPERM in these cases (other than aufs).
- name lookup
--> Since faccessat(2) succeeded just before unlinkat(2), it had to
succeed too.
- filesystem is not writable
--> not your case
- dir permission bits (writable, searchable), no special flags set
(append-only, sticky, immutable, swapfile)
--> not your case
- LSM checks
--> ??
Currently we should confirm the LSM settings on your system first.
How is your configuration? Could your check your LSM log file?

I am afraid you are confusing the aufs user-space utilities and the aufs
kernel-space module. Note that aufs is a filesystem in kernel-space.
What we need to re-build is not the tools in user-space. It is the aufs
module in kernel-space. I hope you had ever build the kernel or module
in kernel-space.

But I don't know whether the ubuntu update is important for the current

Thanks, but is it ok for you if I send a patch in kernel-space?
