I think the bugs were most noticeable when funny things happened, for 
example, file servers with clients with badly synchronized clocks, and 
random bad things happening.

Did you run the test as root?

It tests to see what happens if a file is unreadable because of 
permissions. root is not troubled by permissions, so can read it 
anyway. And so the test fails. I should probably spit out a warning, 
and not do the test when root.

I'm glad to hear it!

I'll probably do a new release tomorrow.
