The first bug about modifying a file is simple to explain, but is too
difficult to fix. Basically, the client kernel is doing some testing of
its own to see if you have permission to modify the file. Since it sees
that you don't have permission, by UNIX file permissions standards (and
since this level has no concept of UID mappings), you lose.
