Which I think is anyway the better solution than the non-portable
inotify.  But we also need to consider the implications that we need to
use stat in contrast to fstat; the directory entry might have already
gone while gpg-agent still has a connection and is working fine on the
inode.

Anyway, nothing we should change for 2.2.
