FWIW, i think it's worse than you describe. for me:
- it doesn't matter what layer i delete the files from
- the files aren't open anymore
the only way i found to recover disk space was to unmount
the upper layer (which hung for a while, assuming writing
the new disk contents), or, later reduce kern.maxvnodes.
