I'll be happy to try most-recent snapshot to confirm/contradict
that this symptom of the 1.7.9 bug is fixed in the source tree.
But I won't be able to persuade colleagues to adopt a snapshot.
FWIW, my issue sounds very much like Keith Christian's

But then he had to backtrack... yes a symptom was fixed -- he can
create files on his share, but another symptom of the same bug (or
else a quite similar bug) still exists.
