Hi Eric, do you realize that the overlay examples in
"http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/" is not working appropriately. Here is
part of the example code for "google with overlay maps":

  function init(){
            map = new OpenLayers.Map('map');

            var satellite = new OpenLayers.Layer.Google(
                "Google Satellite" , {type: G_SATELLITE_MAP}
            );

            var wms = new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS(
                "World Map",
                "http://world.freemap.in/cgi-bin/mapserv",
                {
                    map: '/www/freemap.in/world/map/factbooktrans.map',
                    transparent: 'TRUE',
                    layers: 'factbook'
                },
                {'reproject': true}
            );

            map.addLayers([satellite, wms]);

            map.setCenter(new OpenLayers.LonLat(10.205188,48.857593), 5);
            map.addControl( new OpenLayers.Control.LayerSwitcher() );
        }

In this code I can see what you are saying(transparent: 'TRUE') but this
sample is not working either.
maybe it's an openlayers issue.

Regards,
