    OK, I've attached an initial patch that does this -- we still need to keep 
    the lookup code for NFSv2, where the file handle of the new node isn't 
    returned with the reply, but I drop the EEXIST handling cases.  Does this 
    look reasonable to you?  I'm not set up to easily test this scenario, 
    however.

  I should be able to test this patch (or a later version) this weekend.

Seems to work.  I ran the original test case for several minutes without
error for over 2000 iterations.  I only tested it on -stable by applying
the patch manually.  If it is required I test it verbatim on 7, let me
know and I will.  Thanks.
