True. I (mis-)quoted from memory (as I said the system conceerned is down until
tomorrow).

Nothing unusual. Everything like other dirs. But I couldn't do an ls -l on that dir
without an error message. (Even root can't do this).  I even did try to chown and
chmod it to world access -- no change. Have to wait till tomorrow....

I had tried this and the removal was denied (even to root). That's why I persued
the whole cvs co for all of kdelibs again (see below).

That's what I did. I had regularly updated before with "cvs up -dPA". I kept
the "old-kdelibs"-dir. From memory, the cvs co-ed kdelibs had 10 subdirs more
than the old-kdelibs (cvs up-ed 4 days before).

That's what I am suspecting now. It is ReiserFS (don't know the version). Don't
know how to fsck it. Need to look for docu. There were no suspicious messages
in the boot log however.
