I was thinking the latter was most likely.

$ ls -l invindex/ | wc -l
   6973
$ ls -l invindex/_*.cfs | wc -l
     12
$ ls -l invindex/_*.f* | wc -l
   6948


I just realized I had code (which I found out Monday I didn't need) to
maintain two indexes, and I was copying files back and forth, which (duh!)
copied the deleted files back and forth.  But then I discovered I didn't
need to update a non-live index, since it safely updates the live index.

So, rather than fixing my code, I'll just pull it and update the live index
instead.
