setup.py: skip inotify if there's no inotify_add_watch
Debian Etch doesn't include a sys/inotify.h header, which makes it
impossible to compile _inotify.c, making hg uninstallable.
The cc.has_function() method is implemented by trying to compile a
simple C program. Since there's no redirection involved all error
messages are sent to the terminal. This is not particularly pretty
but at least it allows the installation to complete.

# revlog.parseindex must be able to parse the index file even if
# an index entry is split between two 64k blocks. The ideal test
# would be to create an index file with inline data where
# 64k < size < 64k + 64 (64k is the size of the read buffer, 64 is
# the size of an index entry) and with an index entry starting right
# before the 64k block boundary, and try to read it.
#
# We approximate that by reducing the read buffer to 1 byte.
