[Bug libc/7040] New: Wrong types used in inotify interfaces


Currently, in the glibc headers, the second argument of inotify_rm_watch() is 
typed as "uint32_t"; this should probably be "int".

Similarly, the  use of "int wd" in the definition of inotify_event should 
be "int32_t wd".

See http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/18/334 for background on this, and a patch to 
fix these declarations.
