  Increasing severity because this is a problem with a high-priority application.
  CCing Michael Cardenas. He may be interested too in resolving this issue.

+ FWIW: I've been searching high and low for some kind of implementation of the 
+ Win32 APIs "FindFirstChangeNotification" and "FindNextChangeNotification" and 
+ have come up empty on any UNIX-based system.
+ 
+ This is a kernel-level implementation for Win32, and in theory could only be 
+ solved using a kernel-module in UNIX and/or a completely new filesystem (or a 
+ layered filesystem).  This, in effect, makes cross-platform development 
+ extremely difficult (if not impossible), and requiring the use of kernel mods 
+ is a nightmare for anything close to a production environment.
+ 
+ I wish you luck, and wish I could help...but that's about all I can think of.
