You mean _k{start,stop}_watching_vnode_()? I'm afraid that would help 
until our complete libopenbeos is ready to run on top of of our libroot 
-- which won't be possible, until our libroot is virtually complete and 
libopenbeos doesn't depend on libbe anymore. Kind of an awesome 
milestone BTW, but still some days in the future. :-)
