Hey Carl, Thanks. That patch does fix the problem of reading .config files from the fileinstall watched directory.
It has an unfortunate side-effect though. Now the configuration is re-read and re-applied every time the fileinstall bundle scans the watched directory. This causes the services in the configured bundle to be unregistered, re-configured, and re-registered over and over. I'm guessing its not checking the timestamp on the file.
