Comment (by dawuud):

 the above test results were actually from an earlier commit;
 this commit id
 8939fbf16baa2cbd9ede7b23037b61dfbe323cdd

 seems to have fewer test errors and failures than the HEAD of that branch.
 This is of course because the code review "corrections" caused more tests
 to fail... I'll have to track down which changes cause the problems. I
 suspect they are unicode related changes.

 Furthermore our inotify/watchdog API must implement two more features:

 1. allow the user to set an events mask to select which events to get
 notifications for

 2. event attributes. the event messages may contain information about the
 file object which caused the events such as: file type (e.g. file or
 directory).

 HOWEVER, given that the watchdog API passes nearly all the magic-folder
 unit tests, this means either the watchdog api is good enough or our unit
 test coverage sucks.
