Thanks for the reply.

I believe I found another thing. Several applications in my system are
trying to write log messages to a single text file on the SD Card, and
are each using the O_APPEND option to the open() function to assure
atomic writes to the end of the file. As in:
  int fd = open(filName, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT | O_APPEND, 0644);

Never mind guaranteed atomic or non-atomic operation. The file doesn't
even get created on the card if it's formatted with VFAT!

Does this make sense to anyone?

Thanks,
Frank
