[Unionfs] System Hang when doing a branch add to with version 1.1.5

On a PPC (Freescale MPC8548) machine with a 2.6.11 kernel (That is
pretending to be 2.6.12 for glib reasons, This might be the problem, but
I can't disable it right now) 

 

List: 

# unionctl / --list

        /opt/empirix/nfs/master/rwfs (rw-)

        /var/union/ro (r--)

 

Procedure to reproduce (Some times it works fine):

mount ~/tmp.squash /mnt/src/ -t squashfs -o loop

unionctl / --add --before /opt/empirix/nfs/master/rwfs /mnt/src/

 

That is where is halts, no segfaults, no logged messages

 

Sometimes that succeeds, but if I try to access the union (As I do since
it's the root FS) it halts.
