 * Event interface for MacOS 10(.5) /dev/fsevents interface.
 *
 * WARNING! AFAIK this interface is not strictly considered "public" API 
 * by Apple. Thus it might easily change between versions. Also its said,
 * altough every event receiver has its own message queue, the OS X kernel
 * only deletes a message after *all* registered receivers handled it. So
 * one receiver blocking overflows all receivers. So spotlight might have 
 * to do more stuff, when Lsyncd might cause an overflow. Use at own risk. 
 *
 * Special thanks go to Amit Singh and his fslogger demonstration that
 * showed how apples /dev/fsevents can be used.
