It is part of the tiny "csih" package

Only with several jobs running in parallel (the same batch job is started in several cmd-shell windows independently) we have these errors. The reason is obviously when by chance two processes try to access the same file at the same time which happens not often, but it happens. I assume access to local files is better synchronized by the CPU, whereas at the server there may arise these conflicts.
