Re: Intermittent failures in t9119

Hmph.  One explanation that may make sense is that something else is
touching the file in the working tree after you run your ptouch script,
but I don't know what it is.

I  _think_ "svn info file" actually gives the timestamp of the revision
that  touched the file the last (in their linear worldview of the history),
so  perhaps this is demonstrating the real bug, but only when the test runs
very  slowly?

What platform/OS is the test failing on?

An FC13 machine at k.org; I see 16 "Xeon X5550 @ 2.67GHz" in /proc/cpuinfo
output.
