Intermittent test failure on OS X (kqueue)

On OS X 10.8.5 I sometimes see the following test failure:

--- FAIL: TestFsnotifySubDir (0.70 seconds)
    fsnotify_test.go:558: event received: "/var/folders/9g/167chryj3pgbrgx74j0464q00000gn/T/7358485684450452136/sub": CREATE

    fsnotify_test.go:611: incorrect number of create events received after 500 ms (1 vs 2)
FAIL

I haven't seen it on BSD yet.

I also ran into an odd situation where all my other listeners (Ruby guard, Tower app) quit working properly after a weekend of hacking on fsnotify. Not sure if that is related at all, and I've haven't been able to reproduce it since.

Any ideas? Still happens sometimes, even with Spotlight ignoring my go folder, and with the latest fixes on master.

This issue was related to missing create events, which is now resolved at https://github.com/go-fsnotify/fsnotify.
