Yes, the problem seems to be in the work-queue code.

First of all, according to the comments in process_new_files this patch 
seems to be missing:

+				g_hash_table_insert (non_ready_files, file, file);
+			}
 		}
 	}
 	nautilus_file_list_free (new_changed_files);

Secondly,  if the ready_to_load() calls here fails for a newly changed 
file (because file_info is not read yet), how are we supposed to get a new 
call when file_info finished loading???

mjs, how is this supposed to work?
