Hi Pieter!
Yes i'm using ext4 but since the file transferring was done on a test PC, i've
repeated all the work without "strict allocate". So the problem is resolved for
me (and i've learnt not to use that option).  ;-)

I've simply posted here the details about the trouble i had because i wasn't
sure if it was a normal or a bogus behaviour that deserve to file a bug. And i'm
not sure yet but from the reply i had looks the former.

Cheers.

Cesare.
