That's weird.  The fact that you can create and write the _0qrsNBd
file shows that the write permission issue is fixed.  It seems that
renaming the file to testfile.1,v fails, but it's not clear why this
should happen.

What kind of share is that (/usr/lib/csih/getVolInfo /cygdrive/z)?

Does manual renaming the _0qrsNBd file work?

Does deleteing the _0qrsNBd file work?

Can you reproduce this situation from scratch and call the ci
command under strace, like this

  strace -o ci.trace ci -l -mfoo ./testfile.1

and send the strace output here?
