The problem here is with NFS, really. The .nfs<blah> files
are how the NFS system handles the case where files are deleted
on the fileserver but still open on a client. (Under Unix, a
file can still be open and all its data accessed even if
deleted from the filesystem... it won't *really* go away
until it's closed, too. But NFS doesn't represent that case
well so a temporary filename is used.)
Unless your Python program is what's holding the offending
file(s) open... any idea what's keeping the file in use?
