Bug in Fileutils-4.0.35-42 ?

[Marco Nietz]

Is this a Bug in Fileutils-4.0.35-42 ???

I Try to create multiple Directories using `mkdir -p` on a mounted
(NFS)-Filesystem.

The remote Host is AIX4.1.5.0: 
102 % uname -a
AIX hostname 1 4 00154038C000

I am logged on to a SuSE Linux7.2 System:
hostname mni/test> uname --all
Linux hostname 2.4.4-4GB #1 Wed May 16 00:37:55 GMT 2001 i686 unknown

The Directory is mounted as follows:
hostname:/net/hostname/dataE2 on /net/hostname/dataE2 type nfs
(rw,hard,bg,intr,addr=172.17.4.137)

I`m in the following Directory:

hostname /users/mni> ls -al | grep test
drwxrwsrwx    2 mni      dev           512 Jan 16 11:23 test
^^^^^^^^^^

Here`s The Problem:

1.) hostname mni/test> mkdir -pv test1/test2/test3
    mkdir: created directory `test1'
    mkdir: cannot create directory `test1/test2': Permission denied
                                          ^^^^^

2.) hostname mni/test> mkdir -pv test1/test2/test3
    mkdir: created directory `test1/test2'
    mkdir: cannot create directory `test1/test2/test3': Permission
denied
                                                ^^^^^

3.) hostname mni/test> mkdir -pv test1/test2/test3
    mkdir: created directory `test1/test2/test3'

The Problem occurs only in this Combination (Linux7.2 - AIX4.1.5).
