There is a known issue with starpacks and fileevents and/or fcopy
that is still not well understood (otherwise it would be solved).
It is an issue that only occurs when you run in a starpack (but
you say starkit as well above - is that true?). It seems to also
occur for files that never touch the VFS in general, it just
happens to run in a starpack system.
