Ah, OK, so it's a bug in the underlying file system implementation.
Unfortunately the patch proposed in
<http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=261159> is bogus,
as it introduces a race condition and a potential security hole.

Can you find out more about the file system bug?  Perhaps we
can test for it dynamically, and warn users about it, or something
like that.
