We do enable inotify on alpha and did so back in 2.6.32 as well.
benh@albeniz:~$ uname -r
2.6.32-bpo.5-alpha-generic
benh@albeniz:~$ grep sys_inotify_init /proc/kallsyms
fffffc00010e7c90 T sys_inotify_init
fffffc00010e7cc0 T sys_inotify_init1
Whatever the problem is, it doesn't seem to be in the kernel.
Ben.
