Michael,
I did that immediately upon receiving your orginal email but I was a
bit nervious about changing all the package dependencies but I went
ahead and made a wholesale change from devel/gamin to fam-2.6.9_6.
After reading Dick's answer and his changes, I doubt that it will cause
a major problem.
Thanks,
ed
