Which tests, exactly? The newFile tests in FileFilterUtilsTest? I
found that the lastModified times of files created sequentially during
execution of the test did not go in expected chronological order. I
thought this was due to clock precision (things were off by < 100 ms),
but I am no expert on how the OS and jdk play together here. Adding
the delay in the spin, which is intended to force sequencing of
events, fixed the problem for me on RH FC2 running tests from maven.
