Roger, This is an issue that we see very infrequently. We have been unable to duplicate it in a manner that will allow us to find and fix the problem. If you find a way to reliably create this problem please let us know.
Meanwhile, instructions for removing a file affected by this issue can be found here: http://www.orangefs.org/trac/orangefs/wiki/ExplainPVFS2RemoveObject. Hope that helps!
