Ok, did those two things, and I was still seeing this behavior.  I moved
all of the files that were in the base directory to somewhere outside of
my library, and tried it again, and now it's working.  One of those
files must be corrupt.  The process that add files must have gotten
locked up after hit that file as well, which is why trying to add other
directories didn't do anything.  So after I figure out which file is
bad, how can I go about debugging the process that got hung on this
file?
