Public bug reported:
Doing light file editing with vim and shell pipelines in my ecryptfs'd home
directory has exposed some very broken filesystem behaviour:
* directories stopped existing (fixed with cd $(pwd)),
* directories contained files that could be edited but the edits wouldn't
affect the real files on the filesystem, as observed from other shells
* vim would write swapfiles to somewhere and try and clean them up from
elsewhere
* screen has forgotten which directory it is in

I'm guessing this is related to the CIFS breakage mentioned on lkml, but
I don't even know what CIFS /is/.
