I looked at kqueue, unfortunally it does not seem to provide the functionality 
an application like lsyncd needs. It can watch only singular files, not whole 
directories, and all files have to be open to get a handle - which would result 
in funky unwanted effects, if you have an application like lsyncd maintaining 
open handles to all files.

Dovecot on FreeBSD uses Kqueue for watching the files and improve IMAP IDLE 
performance. Do you honestly think it opens every single email file hosted on 
your email system to get a handle? I think you've not looked hard enough at 
what it can do... and providing a Kqueue interface would give OSX and OpenBSD 
support as well.

Please look into this again....

OSX does not have kqueue btw, it has yet another interface "FSEvents", this on 
the others looks like a pretty decent interface for the needs lsyncd has. It 
just hasnt been coded yet.

OSX actually has both...  Here's the OSX man page for kqueue
