This might be similar to the Virtualbox/gedit fails to save bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/341725) which I suspect is caused by glib and the way it saves to a temporary file, then renames without closing the file. The bug has been recorded as: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=656225
