The test case that I could reproduce 100% with was:

tar -xjf /sw/src/X430.tar.bz2
rm -rf xc

But do you also have a reproducible case for mv? I don't find one. Actually, I can't even reproduce the rm case (OSX 10.3.1)

costabel% tar zxf X11ForMacOSXSource-wwdc.tar.gz
costabel% /bin/rm -rf X11ForMacOSXSource-wwdc
costabel%


It supposedly is a problem in panther's implementation readdir(), so the "real" cause is things using that.

I really want to believe it, but I still don't see the mechanism by which it can have this effect for some people and not for others (with apparently exactly the same system).
