I realize that it's an important issue, but I don't have time to look
for a solution right now.  I did my part by confirming the problem on an
2.6.28.10 kernel.  I don't see it on other kernels, but since it's a
race condition, I cannot say definitely that the same condition cannot
happen on another system running a newer kernel.
