[Bug 956827] Re: embedded terminal doesn't update

Tail should work even without inotify, actually there is nothing that
should not be so fragile that the lack of any one add-on, or dare I say
optional, feature should cause a problem.

Tail worked long b4 inotify, it needs to detect malfunctions in inotify
and fall back to legacy code.  Actually what's wrong with select(2) for
tail?
