[Unison-hackers] Reproducible "archives not identical bug"

[Alan Schmitt]

In presence of path that cannot be propagated, Unison may have a  
fatal error "archives not identical".

Here is the setting:

replica A:
tmp/ubug/foo
tmp/toto/foo

replica B:
tmp/

profile:

root = /Users/schmitta/tmp
root = ssh://beauty/tmp

# common options
sshargs = -C
servercmd = bin/unison

path = ubug/foo
path = toto

The run: (* message that there are no archive *)

local          beauty.local
          error            ubug/foo
path ubug/foo is not valid because ubug is not a directory in one of  
the replicas
dir      ---->            toto  [f]

Finished dumping archives
Fatal error: Internal error: New archives are not identical.
Retaining original archives.  Please run Unison again to bring them  
up to date.

I can run with some debugging option, if it's helpful.
