used it to do setup -u and it performed flawlessly, except for the
apparently expected behavior that my /, /usr/bin, and /usr/lib mounts
switched from text to binary

if it's necessary for setup to switch these mounts while it does its
thing, would it be possible for it to switch them back when it's
finished?

attached is the setup.log from my update
