I built inotify-tools in ltib using version 3.12.  I don't think I
ever submitted it upstream since it was a messy hack and it was a long
time ago so not sure of the status.  I have a patch for it if you
would like to try.

Note:  I wanted to use the library but the license is GPL as opposed
to LGPL.   I ended up writing my own library around the kernel's
inotify system (which isn't that hard).
