This works fine for me with "-v" enabled, though I get a different problem here 
(not sure if this is related or not, it might also be something OSX specific):

If I kill and start a specific server instance through the admin interface 
shortly after another, the admin interface hangs and usher issues two times

Could not initialize admin port: cannot bind to address: Address already in use


If I debug with gdb into usher, I only get back
#0  0x00007fff85064e52 in select$DARWIN_EXTSN ()
#1  0x000000010001f157 in main (argc=2, argv=0x7fff5fbff730) at src/usher.cc:160

and if I continue and break a little later, I get

#0  0x00007fff8509ee72 in accept ()
#1  0x000000010001e092 in sock::accept (this=<value temporarily unavailable, 
due to optimizations>) at src/sock.cc:52
#2  0x000000010001f565 in main (argc=2, argv=0x7fff5fbff730) at src/usher.cc:170

The temporary solution for me is now to add a little time frame between the 
stop and the restart. 2 seconds helped in my case.

I'd suggest trying on revision 1336ca3b4c1b316eeeec33f333f7506dcc40a858 and see 
if that makes life better...

This issue has really been around for some time, just not addressed before now.

I just has a look at the code, and I believe it should be possible to remove 
all the code that looks for "beginning service", and instead add some code in 
server::connect that loops around sock::connect as long as the monotone server 
that was just forked is still up.  Something like that...
I'll experiment a bit and see what I can come up with.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Add a print statement to your rcfile "print('hello out there')
2. Start usher such that that rcfile will load
3. Attempt to sync with usher

Expected result:

Ideally: usher forks monotone and sync begins.

Less ideally: usher reports somewhere, anywhere that the output "hello out 
there" is not the expected "beginning service"

Actual result:

"Received warning from usher: Cannot fork server."

This is caused by server::fork checking only the first line for 'beginning 
service' based on the commented assumption that otherwise monotone's stderr is 
reporting that it failed to launch.

A side effect of this is that adding -v to the monotone args will also silently 
crash Usher.
