Yeah, that makes more sense in an overlay-specific test & operating on
multiple layers. But I don't see the point in this generic test by doing
so, as all these operations are clearly done on the same layer. So I
think adding "rm -f" and "-c" run in this test won't change test
behavior, but could avoid the implicit dependency.

Anyway, at least this is worth some comments on the implicit dependency.

I can fix this status issue, but seems you need to re-post anyway to add
more comments or empty $testdir before each test :)
