Both of these are very important since they appear to be penetrating
bugs (i.e. bugs that will affect multiple programs), since all
programs use the filesystem.
I'm logging these as "critical/high" and will probably ask for more
information when I get back from MACWORLD Expo.

Thanks. If we hadn't taken a brief detour to add sound and go to
MACWORLD Expo I think we'd be in beta by now, but luckily, we get
enough bug reports that when we finally do go beta we should have a
very good idea of what critical/high problems remain. So thanks both
for the compliment and for the bug reports.
