Hmm, for some reason not entirely clear to me, it now works as expected.

% pwd
/afs/altum.de
% touch sw/foo
touch: cannot touch `sw/foo': Read-only file system
% cd ../.altum.de
% touch sw/foo
% ll -g -n sw/foo
- -rw------- 1 100 0 2011-09-18 10:16 sw/foo
% cd -
/afs/altum.de
% ll -g -n sw/foo
ls: cannot access sw/foo: No such file or directory
% vos release sw
Released volume sw successfully
% ll -g -n sw/foo
- -rw------- 1 100 0 Sep 18 10:16 sw/foo

The only thing I did was to "vos release" _another_ volume that was
mounted below .../sw and which showed up as "not released" in the
output of "vos listvldb". Does this also count as "being on a
read/write path"?

Bye...
