At present the glib20 port does not include an option to use inotify or your
patch.

My patch is a simple incremental fix, which requires only importing upstream
bits. (I'm going to update the patch shortly removing my code an replacing =
it
with code recently committed upstream)

I'm not on the gnome team so I don't know which solution they will import in
the tree, but I don't think diverging from upstream is accounted as an opti=
on.
