I'm still trying to look at this, but a side question if I may. Could 
this be caused by the fact that one of the directories is accessed via a 
symlink? I notice that the IDE doesn't much like this, with extra tabbed 
panes being opened whenever there's a compilation error and the risk of 
"file changed on disk" inconsistencies if I don't force a manual save.
