Dohh!!  Thanks.  (I broke that in 2.6.2, trying to be helpful.)

I'm still fairly optimistic that at some point, there will be a ChangeLog
entry which doesn't say "fixing problem caused by rusty in last version..."

I just put a barely-tested 2.2.13 patch at
ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/fam/download/imon-0.0.1-2.2.13.gz.  I haven't
tried applying it to a 2.2.14 tree; let me know how that goes.

The 2.2.13 version still has the same problem as the 2.3.42 version, where
if you're monitoring a directory, and the directory is renamed, you don't
get delete events for its contents until its contents are otherwise
modified, which sucks.

NOTE that if you apply the patch, and want to rebuild fam, you'll have to
rerun fam's configure script (remove your config.cache first), and probably
do a "make clean" (or at least rm fam/IMon.o) before building, because
dependency tracking is broken/disabled in the makefiles.
