Here the build fails with:
inotifytools.c: In function 'inotifytools_watch_recursively_with_exclude':
inotifytools.c:1312: error: storage size of 'my_stat' isn't known
inotifytools.c:1319: warning: implicit declaration of function 'lstat64'
inotifytools.c: In function 'isdir':
inotifytools.c:1598: error: storage size of 'my_stat' isn't known
make[5]: *** [inotifytools.lo] Error 1
So you need largefile support in the toolchain, and the package should
depend on BR2_LARGEFILE.
