I think this is likelier to happen if there is are one or more snapshots of the filesystem in question; in which case, any changes to the base filesystem would increase the difference from the snapshot, thereby requiring more space. Make sure you have a current backup of the oldest snapshot, and then delete that snapshot. That should free up enough space to free up additional space more conventionally.
