The thing is, this really is a kernel bug. We have even bisected it (and 
it hasn't hit any released kernel). The original reporter showed it with a 
simple "rm -r".

So it really isn't a git bug, even though I initially thought it might be, 
before I looked closer.

That said, the git patch may be worth it just because two *concurrent* 
invocations of "git clean" could then cause one (or both) to fail this 
way.
