More useful might be a script rebind that
allows you to rebind a union'd directory D
with/without the creation bit by popping
off the ns elements after D then pushing
them back.

This is such a seldom done task that
I doubt it's really necessary, though.  If
you've screwed up your namespace creation
order, wipe it and start over.

I didn't realize until yesterday just
how poorly I understood union dirs & -c.
It became much clearer when Russ commented
that one used to have to start a union
directory D with bind D D, which is now
implicit (before the first bind, presumably).
