You could also just wrap it around FAM or gamin [1].  Gamin uses the same API 
as FAM, so you can program for one, and get both.  Gamin will give you 
inotify/dnotify.  FAM will give you dnotify, and IRIX support, plus emulated 
support by polling on other kernels.

The last time I tried gamin, it was a bit immature, but it may be better by now.
