I've pushed changes to the OLPC kernel tree which should cope with this
problem, and should prevent it happening again. More to the point, the
code should now tell us _why_ it was happening. I'd very much like it if
someone could run the new kernel, repeat whatever they did to cause this
thing to happen in the first place, and then give me all the kernel
messages following the one which looks like:
	'Error in jffs2_write_dirent() -- name contains zero bytes!'
