The bug is caused by the fact that a delete_self event is generated by a call to
dentry_iput (which is called when a file is deleted from a directory).

However, dentry_iput is also called by the kernel when it's trying to free up
memory in the dentry cache (for example, if the machine is under heavy disk load).

The delete_self event is generated for both of these cases which is why stuff
disappears when it ought not to.  John just dropped by and showed me what a fix
for the problem looks like and I'm just waiting for my powerbook to finish
compiling its kernel so I can give it a test.  Wish me luck :)
