How can it make sense that inotify suddenly starts seeing events it does not
support?

Apparently.  Here is a trace if what I'm getting through inotify (the inotify
events were dumped with gdb, the rest is from strace):

inotify_init()                          = 3
inotify_add_watch(3, "d", IN_ACCESS|IN_MODIFY|IN_ATTRIB|IN_CLOSE_WRITE|IN_CLOSE_NOWRITE|IN_OPEN|IN_MOVED_FROM|IN_MOVED_TO|IN_CREATE|
IN_DELETE|IN_DELETE_SELF|IN_MOVE_SELF) = 1
read(3, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\1\0\0\0 \0\0@\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 4210688) = 32

	=> {wd = 1, mask = 0, cookie = 0, len = 0, name = ...}
	=> {wd = 1, mask = 1073741856, cookie = 0, len = 0, name = ...}

read(3, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\1\0\0\0\20\0\0@\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 4210688) = 32

	=> {wd = 1, mask = 0, cookie = 0, len = 0, name = ...}
	=> {wd = 1, mask = 1073741840, cookie = 0, len = 0, name = ...}

read(3, 0x7fff56db15e0, 4210688)        = -1 EINTR (Interrupted system call)
