There are to quite different union-kind things in kernel. One is the -o union option for the mount, see mount(2). Second is unionfs proper. The first thing (-o union) requires support in namei and related syscalls, like getdirentries. It is implemented for native freebsd getdirentries (both current and 4-compat variants), but, AFAIR, is _not_ implemented in compat syscalls implementations for sysv, linux, xenix etc. And, in fact, making that compat syscalls behave is somewhat tricky due to cookies and differences between supposed output formats for ABIs. Unionfs shall have no real difference in behaviour what used from processes using compat ABIs.
