--- Comment #2 from wjenkner at inode.at ---
Just a clarification:  What fixes inotifywatch is not the update to git HEAD
(40 is the "patchlevel" from the last release as computed by git --describe
tags), but files/patch-src_inotifywatch.c, which is needed because of the way
libinotify (currently) works, as my comment in the attached patch tries to
convey.

I lumped the update and the fix together because git HEAD has, among other bug
fixes, one change that I find crucial for even understanding why the code works
at all, viz. the change from a polling to a blocking loop in a85bab1.
