Stéphane,

I've always been uncomfortable with using per-file bind mounts instead
of symlinks for this.  Mounts carry a small but real penalty in the
kernel; we don't want the kernel to be using memory tracking thousands
of mounts on the phone!

Why do you prefer bind mounts instead of symlinks here?  I can't see any
advantage to this, and while it wouldn't solve the /etc/localtime case,
it would help other uses where the handling tools know how to read
through symlinks.
