Right, locked files under windows is a 'challenge', e.g. As illustrated when you try to sign existdb jar files during the build.... The issue is windows only.

Besides that, I remember I added a special construction into the code that manages binary resources in exist: remember that non-XML files are all stored directly on disk. It is a strange construction, where we call 'system.gc()' to do the actual file rename .....

Strange stuff.......
