Where is your HOL installation installed?  Is it owned by a different (Unix) 
user?

Is it possible that when you run HOL, the system is trying to write to a 
directory that is not owned by you? 

I can imagine this being a bug, though I will have to look into how it is that 
loading a theory should cause a .HOLMK directory to be needed.
