Er, what is the mount(..., MNT_RELOAD ...) in tunefs for then? Unmounting and remounting should not be necessary for any read-only file system including "/". You can do the MNT_RELOAD from the command line using mount -u if tunefs doesn't do it. I have some old fixes for tunefs which fix missing remounts as a side effect. In -current, tunefs only detects mounted filesystems if they are in fstab. It clobbers read-write mounted filesystems and fails to remount read-only mounted file systems if they are not detected.
