The file system is encfs.  I have seen permission problems on both
Tiger and Leopard. I did not see issues with the 0.4.0 version on
Tiger. However in the case of the backup program is did work 100% with
0.4.0 and about 25% of the time 1.1.1. I suspect that does not mean
much since I don't have the exact step to reproduce the problem yet.

I think it has something to do with who created the file.  In this
example I was inside of the encfs volume and touched a files as root
but the file is owned by test:staff not root:wheel.  The file that can
not be removed in some cases is owned by root:staff.  The volume is
mounted with allow_other as the only option.

sh-3.2# id
uid=0(root) gid=0(wheel)

sh-3.2# touch foo
-rw-r--r--  1 test  staff  0 Nov 27 12:57 foo


I don't have enough data yet to make a simple test cases but it maybe
things worked in the past due to a bug and it got fixed some time
between 0.4.0 and 1.1.1 and I now need to adjust my options to
compensate for it.

In my setup user test is using encfs to mount a directory with the
allow_other option set and when I try to backup data or delete certain
files I get permission errors.  I used allow_other because I wanted
Spotlight to work.
