master is only running for short times so I don't consider this patch - as it 
is - very useful. It should also and most importantly dump state on failure, 
or on command-line request - could you please add that? ;-)

Also def __init__(... dir=".") seems to be useless / pampering over an error 
which should be caught elsewhere, so better just use dir as it is.


cheers,
