Ok. So I suggest:
1) try to make it reproduceable on demand: unzip another AddOn, run bzr
add; bzr commit.
2) repeat and vary until you can make it happen on demand.
3) step through whatever steps you found made it reproduceable, checking
after each one for the directory (but don't leave a window open on it,
that can potentially alter things).
4) ???
5) profit!
