busybox is giving these errors when mounting an image from CDROM onto a
read-write file system using loopback:

# mount -o loop modules.ima /mnt/disk
mount: WARNING: loop device is read-only
mount: WARNING: loop device is read-only
mount: WARNING: loop device is read-only
mount: Mounting modules.ima on /mnt/disk failed: Permission denied
# mount -o loop -r modules.ima /mnt/disk
#

Why is this?  I thought this sort of thing automatically mounted ro
now...

I forgot to see what version of busybox this was, but it has to be a
recent (last couple of months?) version from CVS...
