System  : Probably both hardware platforms (confirmed on RT)
Version : 6.1C

Problem:
--------
If the soft and hard limit of the no. of inodes is set to 0 in quota
(i.e. no restrictions) then when you write a file, the inode count is
not incremented. But when you delete a file, the inode count is
decremented. Thus mathematiclly :

	lim		{  inode-count = 0  }
	   t -> infinity

Of course when you run quotacheck, it set it back to the proper value
again. 

Fix:
----
Hopefully soon. I am looking into this now.
