Known problem....this happens when you move/rename/delete a file
mldonkey is uploading ATM. The file-descriptors are not closed. try to
do a close_fds before renaming. see the uploaders command if someone
is still loading that file from you. stop all upload for a few minutes
until there are no uploaders anymore, close_fds and
move/delete/whatever. works for me....
