From FAQ

(rec=True) ... you also must watch for IN_CREATE events, or new directories won't be watched.

From docstring:

    @param auto_add: Automatically add watches on newly created
                     directories in watched parent |path| directory.
                     If |auto_add| is True, IN_CREATE is ored with |mask|

Do you need to OR IN_CREATE or not?
