(rearranged to bottom-post)

The problem is:

trash directory.t7063-status-untracked-cache$ diff trace trace.expect 
3,4c3,4
< directory invalidation: 1
< opendir: 1

I can repro on a SSD.

I had to try many times to reproduce (I think even more the second
time). I just ran the test in a while loop until it failed.

I suspect that the kernel might be a bit slow to update the mtime on the
directory, but I have not yet been able to repro, and I don't understand
why it only happens in this one test, since sparseness should be
completely unrelated.
