Comment (by dawuud):

 in another dev branch i saved a commit with added debug print statements
 so i could track down the root cause of the above unit test failure:
 https://github.com/david415/tahoe-lafs/tree/1432.osx-watchdog-
 stable.3.wip.1

 what is happening is that this test case fails:
 https://github.com/david415/tahoe-
 lafs/blob/e451e2eaa410d84aa3ae0b62a5aaf5a4d4aa786b/src/allmydata/test/test_magic_folder.py#L1240

 _check_file is failing on the temporary file case; specifically here's the
 comparison that fails:

 https://github.com/david415/tahoe-
 lafs/blob/e451e2eaa410d84aa3ae0b62a5aaf5a4d4aa786b/src/allmydata/test/test_magic_folder.py#L182

 {{{
 yield
 self.failUnlessReallyEqual(self._get_count('uploader.objects_disappeared'),
                                              previously_disappeared + 1)
 }}}

 {{{
 uploader.objects_disappeared 0
 previously_disappeared + 1 == 1
 }}}

 OK so it uploads the temporary file when it shouldn't. But is that really
 so bad? Seems better than not uploading enough.
