I resynced the server only three hours ago - could it have picked sth 
illegitimate up from the mirror?

BTW, the .Trash-0 file looks the same in the client machine too.  I thought 
that it's part of the fs.

Hoooold on!  I think I know what happened.  I used Konqueror as root to delete 
some redundant source files from distfiles.  I might have pushed some into 
Trash as opposed to deleting them completely.  I take it it's alright to just 
delete .Trash-0?
