Demand a refund! Lobby your congressman to approve the Software
Portability Act, which carries a mandatory life sentence for any
developer who publishes source code that doesn't compile and run on
all platforms! Round up a mob and lynch DJB for releasing daemontools
without a working taildir equivalent!

Seriously, Scott, yesterday you couldn't even understand the need for
taildir, and now you're complaining you can get it to work. What's
your angle? Jeff Hayward wrote a small utility for his own use and
shared it with others because he thought they might find it useful,
too. He never claimed it was perfect or widely portable, and if it
doesn't work for you, so what? Feel free to write, distribute, and
support your own "taildir" so people like you, who don't even need it, 
can take pot shots at it.

Sheesh.
