   Yes, you explicitly umount *that directory*.  Note you can't have
   processes holding the filesystem busy, no matter what you do.  It just
   *cannot* work.

Can you rename the "intercept points" so that the new incarnation has
a new hierarchy to mount things on?

Caveats:  Dunix doesn't support autofs so there's lots I don't know.
Judging from a discussion in nfs-devel, there's a lot I don't know about
Linux's VFS, etc.
