 Now we are using gio (in glib 2.16) to monitor the file system. I have
found this:

===================================================
Here's the deal.  Glib 2.16 includes a lot of the file management
code  that was previously included in gnome-vfs.  Part of that code
is a file monitor wrapper which allows the new GIO subsystem to get
real-time file update information.  This wrapper has FAM, inotify,
and Solaris backends.

 So maybe you need to check your glib or gio is compiled correctly with all the necessary modules.

 Thanks,
