The following reply was made to PR kern/63621; it has been noted by GNATS.

Sometimes, even this trick fails to have subsequent read accesses working. But maybe it's just a matter of un-mounting and re-mouting the filesystem... Indeed, I need to perform some more tests but I've been doing this with 100% succes so far: 1. mount 2. cat file.txt 3. un-mount 4. re-mount 5. do whatever I want, even subversion operations Actually, I still pray each time I do a simple svn update. But statistically, this gives me the best results. Dmitry, could you try this method to confirm? BTW, I've just upgraded to 5.3-RELEASE last night so we'll see in a short while if the problem is still relevant with this version. Herve
