Ah, never mind, I can reproduce it on my machine, using the zipfile downloaded from https://github.com/tahoe-lafs/tahoe-lafs/archive/master.zip.
The first line of tahoe --version-and-path also gives an unknown version with the correct path (e.g. allmydata-tahoe: unknown [unknown: unknown] ([...]/tahoe-lafs-master/src)). src/allmydata/_version.py does not exist.
