dev_appserver.py is not reloading changed code

At some point in the last few months, dev_appserver.py completely stopped reloading changed code on my Google App Engine project. Unfortunately, because the gap in my development coincided with at least one version change in the appserver platform, I can't be more specific about exactly when the symptom began.

Manually stopping and starting dev_appserver.py does cause changes to be reflected immediately, but the old behavior was quite useful and I am eager to make it work again.

I have found some code in the appengine source (_internal/django/utils/autoreload.py) which appears to be responsible for the reloading behavior, so I suspect that this is a bug and not an intended functionality change. The reloading code looks fairly straightforward and does not appear to depend on any fancy notification facilities in the OS, so I don't think that it is an OS bug. I'm running on MacOS 10.8.2 and Python 2.7.2.

Stack Overflow is the official venue for App Engine technical questions, but this sounds more like a bug report. Bug reports are best sent to the issue tracker.
