[PLUG] /dev/loop/0 only once?


I was surprised to find that I can only mount one ISO image at a time:
 # mount -t iso9660 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop/0 debian-cd-1.iso debian-cd-1
Try that again without an intervening umount and I'm told device
busy. E.g., I want to look at 
 # mount -t iso9660 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop/0 debian-cd-2.iso debian-cd-2
Sure enough, there's no /dev/loop/1, but why should I need it?
I don't really need to do it, though it would be nice. But I'd really
like to debug my understanding of mount. I thought this should work.
