[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
file-notify-test04-autorevert fails sporadically on Cygwin, due to
timing issues.  The attached patch seems to fix it.  I've run it in a
loop of 100 trials several times, on two different computers, with no
failures.

No objection from my side; if there's no other comment you could push
the fix.
