I've had a vaguely similar problem with 2.6.0-test5: recently I've been
compiling KDE over a period of a few days. The first couple of days I was
running test4, and everything was fine. Then I upgraded to test5, and three
times now I've had particular executables become unusable. For example,
yesterday, egrep just stopped working. This stopped the KDE build, and
testing it by hand, I found that running "egrep" gave me the error "text
file busy." I couldn't find any way of making it work again except a
reboot.

Today it was "sed" that stopped being runnable with the same error message.
I didn't try a remount (at the moment, my system is one big / partition.
Yeah, I know...) Again, sed didn't become runnable again until I rebooted.

Has anyone else seen this weirdness? It's vanilla 2.6.0-test5, with
reiserfs.
