The log shows successful sync of both a client and server change, but  
for some reason, the client decides to nuke it's hierarchy state and  
request a new FOLDERSYNC. No idea why, at least not from the  
information presented in this portion of the log.

The simulator (the only kitkat device I can test right now) has not  
shown this issue. At least not yet.
