+ * generate directories): If the directory does not exist, a context switch happens,
+ * at that moment another process creates it, then our creation on the context
+ * switch back fails. This actually happened in practice, and depending on the
+ * configuration it is even likely to happen. We can not solve this situation
+ * with a mutex, as that works only within out process space. So the solution
+ * is that we take the optimistic approach, try the creation, and if it fails
+ * with "already exists" we go back and do one retry of the check/create
+ * sequence. That should then succeed. If the directory is still not found but
+ * the creation fails in the similar way, we return an error on that second
+ * try because otherwise we would potentially run into an endless loop.
