I have seen a similar effect on a standard POSIX file system (NonStop) when run in a special platform container (Pathway). It does not happen for me when run from bash directly. This may be something other than an NFS effect, or unrelated to what I observed. I'll be monitoring this sub-test for repeats. --Randall
