 Load polygonal shapefile FOO.SHP (with FOO.DBF, FOO.SHX etc). Enable
 editing. Select two features and use Merge Selected Features. Disable
 editing and save changes. Qgis gives you FOO.shp, FOO.shx and FOO.dbf
 alongside your original files.

 Just moving nodes around doesn't do this, but deleting a feature does, so
 I suspect it's whenever the structure changes and the whole shapefile
 needs rewriting....

 Probably a Unixy case-sensitive file system problem only.
