kdirwatch.cpp: DNotify also in RH8 kernel V2.4.18

Something I accidently noticed when starting konqueror.. Apparently the 
DNotify code isn't used when the Linux kernel is below V2.4.19, but the 
kernel from RH8.0 which is 2.4.18 does have DNotify support.

Was there are reason for selecting V2.4.19?! Or is this an oversight?!


kde/kdelibs/kio/kio/kdirwatch.cpp :

  else if( major * 1000000 + minor * 1000 + patch < 2004019 ) { // <2.4.19
    kdDebug(7001) << "Can't use DNotify, Linux kernel too old" << endl;
    supports_dnotify = false;
  }
