So I'm writing a node.js wrapper around fam/gamin, but I'm having some weird behavior in my unit tests.
First run, everything works perfectly. On the second run, however, gamin hangs unless I've killed gam_server between runs. I'm running the latest version of gamin.

Obviously, since I'm writing a node module, I'm using libuv, and FAMNextEvent() is being called in a separate thread.
