I couldn't test anything or look much at it tonight, but perhaps that
another suspect code section might be in si_mkdir():

        if (filename->base_string.fillp)
            filename->base_string.self[--filename->base_string.fillp] = 0;

where perhaps the -- is unnecessary (assuming that string does have a
fill pointer)?
