I rebuilt with --with-file-notification=inotify, but that did not work
very well. I started getting this over and over:
Error while trying to read file system events
E.g. I did M-x list-packages and that message started appearing with
some regularity.
I've rebuilt with --with-file-notification=no, but it's too soon to see
how well it works.
