Let's try an updated version of OpenAFS.  We've invested too much time
into AFS to stop without at least trying a couple of other kernels/AFS
releases.  Especially now that we have someone who is (compared to me,
at least) an expert at dealing with AFS.

It might be good, for example, to try out 1.4.3rc1.  The release
announcement says that they fixed a "rename and chown problem", which
might be similar to what we're experiencing.

It would be preferable to not try a lower kernel version -- I would
like to be able to try running MoinMoin on a FUSE-provided
database-as-filesystem setup, and there are some important FUSE
bugfixes that went into 2.6.18.
