--- Comment #7 from Robert Mela <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>  2008-07-09 19:00:57 PST ---
Our application has a file called "current.jpg" that is replaced every minute. 
    New data is written to a temp file, then rename(2) is called to rename it
to "current.jpg".

My company is experiencing exactly the race condition detailed by rahul in
comment #4.

This method of "mv" or "rename()" to update content is very common.   There is
probably widespread assumption that Apache does the right thing in this case.

Any chance of a patch in 2.2.10?

We're now faced with writing brand new files and adding file cleanup scripts,
or having our own custom modified version of Apache.
