 Using the atf test's helper program I have noticed that it does
 not matter if you use the "real" file or the "null-mount" file
 in the kevent() call.  In either case, writing to the "real"
 file generates a kevent correctly, while writing to the "null-
 mount" file does not generate any kevent (and the test program
 times out).
