This is exactly what happened with my rename; the "Xenocidic" account
re-created itself while the "Xeno" account took on the rights and such.

I suspect it may have something to do with the user being active when the
bureaucrat does the rename. Asking them to log out of their account prior to
carrying out the rename may thus function as a workaround.
