It was indeed a bug in the current trunk of Tahoe (which I demoed at  
NCLUG at the last meeting) which wasn't present in the most recent  
release of Tahoe, just as Brad suggested at the time.

It wasn't caught by the unit tests because the unit tests use a fake  
object to simulate the remote servers and that fake object happened  
to work in a way that real servers don't.

It is now fixed, so the upcoming v1.5 release of Tahoe-LAFS will not  
have this bug.

Here is the issue ticket:

repairing a file which has 7 shares on 2 servers
