I have no knowledge about this domain, but perhaps they are immutable.

[root at moonstudio tmp]# touch test
[root at moonstudio tmp]# lsattr test 
-------------e-- test
[root at moonstudio tmp]# chattr +i test
[root at moonstudio tmp]# lsattr test 
----i--------e-- test
[root at moonstudio tmp]# rm -f test
rm: cannot remove 'test': Operation not permitted
[root at moonstudio tmp]# chattr -i test
[root at moonstudio tmp]# rm -f test
[root at moonstudio tmp]# ls test 
ls: cannot access 'test': No such file or directory

*?*

Assumed they should be immutable, then there might be a reason for
this ;).
