stat(2) of a directory

	Under *nix, I can use stat(2) of a directory to know when its
	contents have changed (file added or deleted from it).

	Under cygwin, this doesn't work because a directory's
	modification time doesn't change when its contents change.

	Any recommendations as to how to monitor a directory to know
	when its contents change under cygwin?

	- Paul
