Thanks for testing it. It appears that the problem you are seeing is gamin's 
fault. Exchanging gamin with FAM or compiling gamin without kqueue support 
makes notifications on NFS mounted dirs work.

Anyway, tests from other users revealed problems when monitored directories 
contain several thousands of files and it appears that the only real solution 
to this problem is a multithreaded approach due to the way FAM reacts on 
monitor requests.

Thanks,

Markus
