Comment(by Quozl):

 Selected a USB stick.
 Prepared q3a14 on one 1.5-B2, q3a15 on another.

 Symptom confirmed; q3a14 cannot write from within emacs.
 Fix confirmed; q3a15 can write from within emacs.

 (Incidentally, the test sequence above may have mysteriously afflicted the
 USB stick, in that "dir u:" on q2e41, q3a14 and q3a15 now show a single
 file of name "USBC).@" instead of the remaining files seen by Linux.  A
 Linux system shows that the first file (ls -f) is "usbc)\0", which
 suggests that OFW is stopping once a filename contains a NUL.)
