/sbin/umount does not return the correct exit status due to incorrect
logic in its internals.

Further, because of the nature of the code, you *cannot* use it to
umount a directory from a union mountpoint. Well, you can sometimes,
it depends on if the directory is at the top of the union stack or not :)

When using union filesystems,
.Xr umount 8
cannot always determine the node which is the mountpoint.
In this case,
it is necessary to specify the relevant directory to be unmounted
in the same form as that displayed by
.Xr mount 8 .
For example, given a mount entry like this:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
<above>/tmpdir on /cdrom (local, user mount)
.Ed
.Pp
then the command:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
umount '<above>/tmpdir'
.Ed
.Pp
would unmount
.Ar /tmpdir
from the mountpoint
.Ar /cdrom .
