No stable version available at the moment on amd64. I installed sys-fs/inotify-tools-3.11 and have no problems.

Wolfram, could you please look into the failures?
I have tried to contact Rohan, will let you know when I got his attention ;)
Wow, that was quicker than I hoped ;) He will take care about it next weekend (maybe earlier). Will keep you up2date.
--8<-- 24 November 2007: inotify-tools 3.12 released. Changes: * Fix: inability to free memory allocated by inotifytools, and bogus memory leak check (causing `make check' to fail on some systems). * Fix: spurious warning when the `--format' option is given to inotifywait. * Fix: inotifywait fails to watch newly created directories when recursively watching a symlink to a directory. --8<-- 3.12 is in CVS. So, either you ignore the "make check" results, or you wait until you can consider 3.12 for stable marking :)
amd64 stable But.. entire src_compile() should be removed since it only does econf, emake without arguments?
(In reply to comment #9) > amd64 stable > > But.. entire src_compile() should be removed since it only does econf, emake > without arguments? Yep, you're right. Either I can do it, or x86 can do it when they touch the ebuild anyway ;)
x86 stable, so closing
