It was more than that. I saw it too Sunday. And had to quickly hardlink 
everything back into position. The magic of keeping a hardlinked shadow

Even though rsync went on a delete frenzy, I brought the content back 
online without too much repeat download nonsense. Something was amuck at 
kernel.org for sure; but they got it squared away eventually.
