JVM crash on OSX

[cursive-ide]

I'm developing functionality for my product, a plugin for IntelliJ. I developed some functionality using directory-watcher, unfortunately I'm occasionally seeing JVM crashes on OSX. I've attached the dump here.

I'm running macOS Sierra 10.12.6 on a Retina MBP 15".

JRE: 1.8.0_60-b27 x86_64
JVM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM by Oracle Corporation
Mac OS X 10.12.6

Is there anything specific you needed to do to trigger this? From what I can see in the dump it looks like you have two threads running the WatchService.

It doesn't seem like this project is active anymore, so I've been working on my own fork of this project at https://github.com/gmethvin/directory-watcher. Happy to accept pull requests there if you figure out what's going on.

This is used for a Java clone of Jekyll for watch mode and it's a very simple use case. My only goal was to remove the code with licensing issues. If you have a test case that expresses the problem it's likely something easy to fix.
