I'm not disputing that. Our server runs with "IMAP_ENHANCEDIDLE=0", mostly due to those very problems. However, crappy fam does not prevent imapd from functioning, but other things would, such as a *misconfigured* fam, or having both i386 and x64 versions of fam packages installed, etc. I've been running fam-2.6.7-6 on my RH 7.3 server for nearly two years.
