I thought I'd better confirm my speculation so I checked it out today on
2.5S1-20021022. The problem still occurs, specifically the open call in
squidaio_do_open(), fs/aufs/aiops.c:584 (probably obvious to some folks).

Good thinking. Not at the keyboard now but I'd swear on lefty that _REENTRANT
was there when I compiled today. I'll follow up tomorrow and eat my words if
necessary. Other than that though I'm pretty stumped, except ... could it be
possible for EAGAIN to happen when there are several files being created at
the same instant within the same directory?
