I saw the same thing doing a rm -rf of a large source directory. I 
couldn't even remove the .nfs files except by writing to them as root (!).
Sounds like something is not keeping track of closes correctly, and 
thinks files are open when they're unlink()ed. Haven't been able to find 
it yet.

This is on NetBSD/Sparc as of 24 Feb 96, with a Solaris 2.4 server.
