AFAIK inotify.h was moved to the glibc system headers, I think because it is considered bad to include kernel headers. However this only happened for glibc 2.5 and debian unstable is still using 2.3 something. So you can either use libc from debian experimental, which might give you problems with other packages, disable inotify support, or use your fix, which I think shouldn't give you problems ATM.
