I can still reproduce it. It happens when a proximity event comes in
when the SD is grabbed.

Thanks, XIGrabButton on SDs is mostly working now. The only problem is
that the original Press event is still delivered, which leads to
inconsistent state on the MD until the button is pressed on another SD.

My theory is that it's a race condition, where due to the recursive call
of make the same man page is built at the same time by both processes
and then the second mv fails.
