->  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..."
->  
->  > (NB - any idea on a backport to 2.2.14/15 ? )
->  
->  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.

must have just gone up - it wasnt there eralier today when i downloaded
it :) i'll give it a shot.. i wont be testing renaming for a while...
just adds, deletes and changes are my priority right now.. :)

->  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.

poke me with a glowing hot iron rod.... but for renames shouldn't I get
a Move event? for the base dir that is... ?

->  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.

yup - i guessed at that... i do it out of habit anyway... :)
