Well I guess the optimal solution is to work out which binds are over 
the root filesystem and delay those, or indeed in general to delay bind 
mounts until their source filesystem is mounted. That may be somewhat 
hard to do though ;-)

I have been, and no, it doesn't (until you do a mount -o remount on the 
filesystem, at which point it is applied).
