This may actually be an error. This new info was on a linked file
(using templates). I tried on a VPS that has broken the link and found
this:

# ls -ali /vz/private/101/root/bin/ls
245325878 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 67700 Sep 29 11:42
/vz/private/101/root/bin/ls
# ls -ali /vz/root/101/bin/ls
245325878 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 67700 Sep 29 11:42
/vz/root/101/bin/ls

Or - the third thought is that we are better off not using the CoW/vzfs
part of Virtuozzo at all and OpenVZ is a more scalable alternative to
Virtuozzo.
