Patch: inotify monitor being too agressive

[Frederic Crozat]

Hi,

I've got bug report on dbus not seeing new configuration files (while
inotify monitoring should work fine).

After some investigation, I noticed inotify monitoring is a little too
good : when file are created by package manager, IN_CREATE event might
be fired before file is finished writing on disk : in this case, dbus
will discard the file (since it is not valid XML) and will not put back
a monitor on configuration directory.

Attached patch fixes this behavior by monitoring only IN_CLOSE_WRITE,
IN_DELETE, IN_MOVE_TO and IN_MOVE_FROM events. This way, only atomic
changes to configuration file are monitored.

It also fixes a build error when enabling verbose mode.
