Yeah, I think so, too. The funny part about it, that previously the test failed
that assumed, that it could create a quite good number of unique ids within a
time period and I really had a hard time to find a good solution to compensate
backward time shifts from the OS. Now the opposite hapens! This time another
test fails, because it simply assumes that it cannot generate two ids within
the same time slice (because the generator is configured in this way) ... and
is fooled by the OS shifting time forward ;-)
I'll modify the test to force the exception ASAP ...
The lesson appears to be not to get involved with timing code :)
IO's errors are due to timestamping of files on the file system.
Lang's error is in its time package.
