Mount version is 2.12r. What is the idea ? mount requires a device file as second last parameter. Is the "unionfs" parameter meant to somehow "dummy" the parameter. Obviously that does not work ! Another thing I observed is, that during tries, the unionfs usage count (lsmod) increased, but no mount were visible (no mount, nor unionctl). This leaded to an unresonsive "halt" statement. Id had to swicth off the host again. Thats a nasty one.
