We need some more details about your particular setup. Are you trying to
save to an NFS mounted filesystem? A bit of searching on Google for that
error message (which hopefully you also did before posting to the
mailing list, right?) shows that it's possible there.
If you're not using an NFS_mounted system as the destination, what sort
of OS and filesystem are you trying to save to? Do things change if you
target the file saves to somewhere else that is more or less guaranteed
to be locally mounted (e.g. /tmp on a Unix system)?

Precisely. Which makes it subject to race conditions and lots of
problems because of that.
You could also avoid the problem by not saving your file at all. Both
options are just symptom patching, rather than a solution to the
problem. :-)
Looks like we need to switch from flock-based locking to fcntl-based
locking where available. *sigh*. I'll take care of opening a ticket for
this.

I've opened #8043 anyway, since not everybody is going to have the
ability to reconfigure the NFS mount options. A big, hulking sysadmin
may be standing between them and the config file, for example. Which
makes this a bit of a showstopper in that case. Fortunately, it looks
like it's ultimately solvable.
