Well, given that errno 2 is ENOENT, it is interesting what happens here.
 Entry appearing twice on the list of GC items, name clash, something
else ? Is this something harmless or a result of a more serious issue ?

My guess is that it could be a result of fast creation and deletion of
some tmp files, so that inode number is reused before an entry is
actually deleted from .deleted and thus there is a name clash.
Should be harmless if this is true. Or not ?
