Not, it's much worse than that: UFS will not re-read cached data for the read-only mount so the read-only mount will continue to use data which is stale; e.g., once a file is opened and as long as its inode is in use (file open) or cached, you will never see a change to the file. You will never notice changes to data unless you no longer cache it. Panics and random data reads are guaranteed.
