Weird, you're right.  I was under the impression that quotas suffered
the same issue, and refquota was the *fix* to this issue (c.f. [1]).
Well, live and learn; I'll switch them back.  Thanks for the quick
fix.

I didn't see anything about this in the 10u6 release notes [2]; where
could I have found the notification that quotas were behaving nicely
WRT unlink()?

further details.
