Me too, but unfortunately it is difficult with some reasons
(detail information http://people.freebsd.org/~daichi/unionfs/).
Of course, our patch gives the conditions for integration of
-current OK. For -stable is BAD.

We must keep the API compatibility of command/library
for integration of -stable. With some technical/specifical
reasons, our improved unionfs has a little uncompatibility.

For the last time, integration of -stable will be left
to the judgment of src committers and others.
