Something odd in knail from 3.5.9 on F8

Greetings all;

Yesterday I needed to email a patch file I had just generated to the maintainer
of the OS for a "legacy" computer, so I fired up the new mail by clicking on
his name in a previous email, wrote a short msg and tried to attach the patch.
But regardless of how many times I backed out of the directory & then went back
in, the directory listing I was being shown was exactly as it had existed about
36 hours ago. No new files could be seen. So I could not attach it, nor
include it as text in that msg.
.
After I had sent the msg, I shut kmail down using its quit button, gave it 30
secs to clean up and disappear from the htop list, then restarted it, at which
point the newer and missing files were then visible and I sent the patch using
the exact same procedure.

Currently running locally built 2.6.26-rc2 for a kernel. So which direction do
I point the accusatory finger here folks?
