Good catch.  I think this is best fixed for now by Alex doing a chmod
go-w of the top level of the volume, but I have a patch ready to make
athlsync resilient to this problem.  I expect to put that into a 9.1.20
which will go out some time before we deploy to the Athena cell.

(I checked, and there are no other g+w or o+w files in ~acro_v5.0.5.)

The second problem can't be helped by athlsync.
