No, it needs libc w/ inotify support, which you'll by compiling glibc against appropriate linux-headers version. There's no way to state such dependency, and the ebuild already depends on necessary linux-headers version.

It doesn't require glibc, it can work w/ any libc (like uclibc and others) that supports appropriate inotify stuff (inotify_add_watch, inotify_rm_watch etc.) |
