+ - Changed the polling heuristic.
+
+ This is intended to reduce poll (and notification) delays in
+ some circumstances.
+
+ - Improved robostness of adjust_monitor().
+
+ - Removed some dead and obsolete code.
+
+ - Scan accelerated monitors too.
+
+ Both the Inotify and FSEvents APIs claim that they support
+ notifications on eg network file systems, and while they will
+ succeed in notifying on changes performed by the local host
+ on such file systems, they will not on changes performed by
+ other hosts. To avoid missing such changes these monitors
+ need to be actively scanned too.
