Notifications

This is a reminder post for (selfishly) me! Follow along if you like.
(CPAN) Win32::ChangeNotify - does it support (Win32 API) ReadDirectoryChangesW and overlapped IO? If not, how does it avoid missing changes?

(CPAN)Linux::Inotify (and Inotify2) support the Linux kernel API inotify which (perhaps) replaces dnotify. Supported from kernel 2.6.13.
Neither interface is on Fedora core 4, which is 2.6.11.

Further digging required.
