Try creating /rc/bin/aux and sticking a file in there--can you see it
if you do 'ls /bin/aux'? Not unless you do a 'bind -a /rc/bin/aux
/bin/aux'. It's an artifact of the fact that we don't have recursive
unions under Plan 9--we can either specifically bind every
subdirectory of /rc/bin into /bin, or we can just stick the scripts
into /386/bin/subdir/
