#12 More benign errors on Linux?

[Christopher Williams]

I'm setting up watches on various directories and then later trying to remove them by watch id and am getting errors on removal. I'm not sure if this is just happening randomly on removal, or if the watch was on a directory/file that now is deleted and that's why jnotify is complaining?

I can test this on Linux 64 bit Gentoo linux. I would be happy to help.
We run a large cluster of gentoo boxes.

this is fixed in my fork/refactor at https://github.com/fhuberts/jnotify

there were some major race conditions in the code.
