Ok. I will keep this possibility in mind and continue to observe the
situation.

Many thanks to all who racked their brains about this weird problem. For
the time being I think it's not worth to put more effort (and more list
traffic) into this. The reproducibility of this phenomenon is so bad (I
can't even reproduce it myself in other directories or on other
computers) and it is so singular that further investigation would mean a
lot of effort for a little gain.
