Problem committing added dirs/files with serf

I ran into some problems with serf today. I have a script that, each week,
creates a subdirectory and some files in it, schedules them all for
addition, and then commits the whole bunch using a --non-recursive (-N)
commit. This thing's been running for years now without issue, but last
week I switched to serf and now I can't perform the commit portion of this
process. I even tried without -N on the commit. No good. I've since lost
the stack of the error, but the error string was something really helpful
like "Unknown error occurred." :-)

My workaround involved committing just the new directory (with -N), and then
committing the added files in that directory in a second revision.

I haven't had the chance to see if this is a reproducible recipe or not.
