Hi Christian,
I tried to email you the file, but even when bzipped it was too large
for the debian servers. So you can download it from here for the next 10
days:

I've tried to highlight when things happened, hope thats helpful. The
line numbers may only be a guide though, I don't really know what will
be useful in the log file.

Before test, temp/Test_Sharing.xls had -rwxrw-r--

8:41:07, line 30909
testuser2 opened an existing file temp/Test_Sharing.xls.

8:41:13, line 40678
testuser2 Modified and saved file succesfully. Excel however showed the
message "The document was saved successfully, but Excel cannot re-open
it because of a sharing violation. Please close the document and try to
open it again."

File permissions are now -r--rwxr--+, and getfacl shows:
# file: Test_Sharing.xls
# owner: testuser2
# group: users
user::r--
user:testuser1:rwx
group::r--
mask::rwx
other::r--

8:42 line 236239
testuser2 opened file, but couldn't save it, opened readonly

8:43 line 406609
tesuser1 opened file, but couldn't save it, opened readonly
