Note that this won't work for file changes that don't go through the
kernel such as files changing on network volumes from a computer that
isn't the one with the code running on it (this is the same
limitation that spotlight has, of course).

I'd like to watch one or more specific files to see if an external
program has modified them.
Three methods immediately pop to my mind:
kqueue (which I know almost nothing about),
Spotlight (which seems like it ought to be the right answer)
polling the file mod date (which I'd like to avoid)
