Weird bug in ln wrt OpenOffice

This is 100% reproducible:

ln -s libcppu.so.3.0.0 libcppu.so.3

Will always give a munged result.

lrwxrwxrwx 1 dylang dylang 18 Nov 13 01:26 libcppu.so.3 -> libcppu.so.3.0.0nt

lrwxrwxrwx 1 dylang dylang 21 Nov 13 01:28 libcppu.so.3 -> libcppu.so.3.0.0CC.so


and so on. Each time, the source filename is linked with garbage appended. This only happens on the one file. Every other file has a correct symlink set. The directory these files are in is on an NFS server.
