Research direction

No source file or test is named. Start by reproducing the failure with Keybase GUI version 1.0.34-20171027003854+8e989533, then inspect the volume-mount path behind /keybase and Finder. Done means the volume mounts normally without Finder freezing or producing the reported I/O errors.
