Just to clarify (and I apologize that I used sloppy wording which
didn't make this clear): it wasn't "/" which I tried to unmount,
but the second device-special. I.e., the sequence was
# mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /
# umount /dev/hdc
<device is busy>
Thanks to all for the comments so far. It's a help to have company
in thinking that this is a dark corner of Linux behavior, if nothing
else.
