We can now see the dog that isn't barking: no write error is issued
for the second write, and I suppose you could say that as a result
v.setOrphan isn't called. Alas, v.clearOrphan *is* called, which is
why we are having problems.
Perhaps disabling the call to a.error was supposed to be more calm,
and it does seem pedantic to keep issuing the same error message over
and over. I think the solution is simply to keep setting the orphan
bit :-)
