I cannot reproduce this at will (tried and failed), but sometimes if I delete a file -that is attached to a loop device- first and try to detach it's loop device afterwards, it gives me a loop: can't delete device /dev/loop0: Device or resource busy error message. Of course lsof does not report any processes hanging on to the loop device or the deleted file. It'd be nice if losetup had a "force" switch ... or if this is a bug, it should be fixed.

P.S.: as mentioned, I could not reproduce the problem ... eg. the following code worked for me as expected:
