In Emacs 25.1, the default file notification library is inotify for
GNU/Linux, kqueue for *BSD and OS X, and w32notify for MS Windows.
gfilenotify is the default library only for Cygwin. And there, we have a
similar bug#20927 about global-auto-revert-mode and file
notifications. The difference is, that Emacs does not crash there, but
makes Emacs unresponsive for a while.
Therefore, I would like to close *this* bug. We cannot do anything to
force a solution of the glib bug. Objections?
Best regards, Michael.
