Well, with 95% of all unix problems you have the wrong access rights.
The other 5% happen when your disk is full.
Now guess.
Well, that's the general case, but for this particular case - as we had access rights before and after - either somebody changed them, or the disk was full. For changes to access right the probable scenarios are either A. somebody with administrative privileges messed up, or B. we were hacked.
Given that nobody has confessed to A. and it seemed to be fixed too quickly for B. I'm going to have to go for the 5% solution, despite not understanding how that would produce the symptoms noted.
