Theory -- it was doing something like
 $ mkdir foo
 $ touch bar
 $ mtn add bar
 $ mtn mv bar foo
And expecting that mtn would, at the end of this, expect that there
existed a file (not directory) named "foo", that should be versioned?
Hence the test's name, which suggests that it is somehow testing what
happens when mtn and the workspace disagree on the file vs. directory
status of some versioned entity?
