I don't know if this is broken in 2.4.1-ac17 and
2.4.2-pre4, but, what happens when mounting a filesystem
using the loopback device is that the process 'dies' in some
way and there's no way I can kill it.
This is what I did:
mount /test-ext2-image.img /mnt/testimage -o loop,rw -t ext2
And after that there's no way I can get the process killed...

Known problem.
Go
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/people/axboe
and take the latest loop-? patch from there. Let Jens Axboe know if it works
or if you still have problems. Particularry, if you can reliably reproduce
the problem you referred.
I hear the patch should get merged to 2.4.1ac soon.

And, your address [email protected] does not work. I'm kinda
puzzled about how you expect people to reply you. With smoke signals?
