Report on package efs 1.5

Dear Ange / Sandy:

Firstly, I've changed the name of the computer to all x's. It's not my
machine and I'm sure the owner wouldn't want me discussing it in a
public sort of way.

I was trying to delete files. I tried three times. Each time I would
get a message like "deleting <FILE>" and it would hang. C-g broke out
and let me kill the process (I really like that behavior of C-g
BTW!!!)

The second time I tried the same thing happened. Apparently it tried
to delete the first file on the list, go "no such file", deleted the
next file, and froze.

The third time it got past the two already-deleted files and deleted a
third file.

Sorry, I am way swamped this week because of a computer that got fried
right as we're ramping up for a mission. Otherwise I would try to look
into this more. Perhaps this is fixed in 1.6? I haven't had tome to
upgrade that either.

Please contact me if you need more details.
