A local guru told me, there is a program, called "netnsd" that may use a mounted directory, even though it does not show in fuser or lsof. I need to ps -aux | grep myself and kill everything in sight that has to do with netns and the directory in question.
There is more, another case where that was not sufficient, he found that I need to kill anything to do with the process Sysdb
