I don't know why it crashes nor exactly on what, but for now it hasn't crashed with this approach.
For now I'm just putting this up for reference. I'm testing the patch on Linux too, and haven't even yet been able to get warnings. I was expecting the kqueue backend to be used on Linux too, but apparently another one is used there, which uses less file descriptors (or none at all?).</p></pre>

On OS X at least this leads almost inevitably to a crash.</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">This patch prevents this by keeping track of the number of added paths, and by not adding more than a preconfigured maximum (determined empirically in this draft implementation).
The crash occurs in <code style="text-rendering: inherit;color: #4444cc;padding: 0;white-space: normal;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;">folder = dynamic_cast<CMakeFolderItem*>(f);</code> in <code style="text-rendering: inherit;color: #4444cc;padding: 0;white-space: normal;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;">CMakeCommitChangesJob::makeChanges()</code>; as an additional protection that function watches the <code style="text-rendering: inherit;color: #4444cc;padding: 0;white-space: normal;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;">errno</code> variable for errors occurring during the <code style="text-rendering: inherit;color: #4444cc;padding: 0;white-space: normal;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;">addPath()</code> operation; if an error is signalled, <code style="text-rendering: inherit;color: #4444cc;padding: 0;white-space: normal;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;">folder</code> is not obtained by dynamic casting but by initialision a new <code style="text-rendering: inherit;color: #4444cc;padding: 0;white-space: normal;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;">CMakeFolderItem</code>.
<code style="text-rendering: inherit;color: #4444cc;padding: 0;white-space: normal;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;">makeChanges()</code> also contains a few ASSERT statements that should remain effective even when building with <code style="text-rendering: inherit;color: #4444cc;padding: 0;white-space: normal;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;">QT_NO_DEBUG</code>; the patch takes care of that as well.</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">I'm presenting this mostly for reference, in hope it may be useful for Kdevelop/KF5 too. In a real implementation the maximum number of patch watchers would of course be configurable.</p></pre>
