Hi Jerome,

thanks for your work on the Unicode issues!

I'd love to give this some testing. Unfortunately, things don't look
well here on my OS X 10.5.

I've created two directories, a and b, and a file foo.bar in a. I've set
up an unison preferences file for these, simply specifying each as a
root, using its absolute path, with no further directives in the
preferences file. The stable 2.27.52 works well enough. The current r328
trunk (together with my bzr and mac build improvements) however remains
"Looking for changes" forever.

I have no experience in debugging ocaml applications, and almost no
experience debugging on OS X. Judging from the output of pgrep, it looks
like every Unison instance exhibiting this problem and killed manually
would leave behind one or more running processes.

Am I the only one to experience this on OS X? Any hints as to what may
be the cause, and how I may debug this?

What points do you think should be clarified?

Greetings,
 Martin
