While using the head revision of [CoffeeScript](https://github.com/jashkenas/coffee-script/commit/5bf8b422f80b6a2acceaa268719c7f29a724e1a7) and a build of [NodeJS](https://github.com/joyent/node/commit/3ae644d48cad70bcde3b5c367aa9ac64c2a24ae3) from yesterday I encountered a failure while running `compile -watch`.

Assertion failed: (0), function uv_close, file src/unix/core.c, line 149.

This happened after I discarded changes on a CS file in a git repo. I tested that this was reproducible.

This appeared to be bubbling up from NodeJS so I rebuilt from the [head revision](https://github.com/joyent/node/commit/13324bf844d4527e91cf3777d3010aa4dca5f365). There were some commits about `uv` and `fs.watch` so I hoped this would fix the problem. Unfortunately it only hid the issue, I re-ran my test and didn't see the assertion but watch stopped working.
