Description

[FAIL]
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\cygwin\home\David-Sarah\tahoe\trunk\support\Lib\site-packages\foolscap-0.6.1-py2.7.egg\fo
olscap\test\test_negotiate.py", line 586, in <lambda>
    d.addCallbacks(lambda res: self.fail("hey! this is supposed to fail"),
twisted.trial.unittest.FailTest: hey! this is supposed to fail

foolscap.test.test_negotiate.Crossfire.test1
foolscap.test.test_negotiate.CrossfireReverse.test1

but it doesn't fail on Unix, so I think the exception message is misleading.

Can we get more information about this? That "hey! this is supposed to fail" message means that it was exercising an error-handling case, and the code under test failed to raise the error it was supposed to. (this predates the clean Deferred-aware self.shouldFail() utility that I later wrote for Tahoe.. we should probably update the tests to use that construct).
