On reviewing my logs, the 'special meaning' is running out of memory.
Specifically, adding 981 files that total about 10 MB on-disk resulted in
over 1.16GB of memory use when doing an update - versus about 15MB memory
use getting the same files as a checkout.

That's a pretty serious leak.
And, I might add, occurs in build 3597 on Win32.
