./somescript: Text file busy.
What does mean this message at the end: "Text file busy."? I thought
its a bug in tcsh, but I have this message again with sh. However, I
can run this script with command "sh somescript":

I cant run "./somescript" on other terminal even as root. However if I
log out and than login again I can run it:
> ./somescript

On FreeBSD 4.6 everything is ok:

What is this? Is it a bug in FreeBSD 5.4? And if it is a bug how can I
fix it?
