I've had file-notify back on for a few days now, and this has not happened
again, so I'm fine with closing this issue.

However -- and this is a separate bug -- I had to disable it again because it
was stalling out Emacs regularly. I'd ran an operation that changed the state
of the disk, and then Emacs would be locked up for minutes at a time until I
hit C-g repeatedly. Finally, I ran Instruments to see what was going on, and
it was stuck in a busy loop reading directories, spending 92% of its time
calling delq over and over again.

But that's a separate issue, and disabling file-notify cured the performance
problem.
