Patch 2 is obviously correct.  Patches 1 & 3 make sense to me, but it
would be nice to have someone familiar with fsmonitor look at #3.

As to your notes about other related testcases...

You missed the cc...but I looked up this email since you did cc me for
patch 2/3.

Yeah, the commented out code was never tested, because the only thing
I could have tested at the time was incorrect results.  So I just took
a guess at what the improved testing would look like and apparently
made 3 small errors in doing so.  I have fixed it locally and can
submit a patch.
