I'd never got to the end of the impermissible test because the utimes test
fails on both unionmount and overlayfs.  I'll have to address the termslash
alterations at some point.

No.  Unionmount unions are constructed by mounting the lower layers all on the
same mountpoint and then mounting the union over them, also on the same
mountpoint.  So their paths are coincident.

No.

The test suite sets the lower symlink to point to the union path for its target.

[root@andromeda union-testsuite]# readlink /lower/a/indirect_dir_sym100 
/mnt/a/direct_dir_sym100

Yes.  It also will test things like mknod at some point and runs things as
other users to test permissions.
