Sounds like a reasonable thing to do. I'll try to implement it, by
adding a NOTE_ACCESS knote, but I don't think this can make it to the
6.x branch.

I think the best solution would be to have a way to tell gamin which
events we care about (I don't really know anything about gamin, so there
may already be such a thing).
Alternatively, you can mount your filesystem with the noatime option.
