Description

I just ran bin/tahoe start on Windows, and it said this: 

STARTING c:\playground\allmydata\tahoe\.tahoe
client node probably not started

Looking in logs/twistd.log shows that it ends with: 

2009-02-02 12:07:23-0700 [-]   File "c:\python25\lib\site-packages\twisted-8.1.0-py2.5-win32.egg\twisted\internet\posixbase.py", line 328, in listenTCP

See also #71, which is about the "probably not started" being unreassuring, and #529, which is about difficult-to-detect breakage.
