[Omake] depending on the contents of a directory

I've started adding some system tests to one of my projects and I would
like to get OMake to rerun the test suite whenever the input files
change (including adding new ones). Is this possible?
A first attempt was:
test_suite.results: $(TEST_PROGRAM) :value: $(stat $(dir [...])).mtime
./$(TEST_PROGRAM) |& tee $@
where [...] is the directory where I want to be able to add/modify the
test data and have omake rerun the tests (with its -P goodness).
However, this gives:
Non digestable value:
class Stat Object
Contact the OMake team at omake at metaprl.org if you think this
should be supported
So, if that rule is indeed a good way to handle this, "I think this
should be supported" :-D, but I'm not even sure if it is. For instance
will OMake rerun the stat when the directory actually changes? Is there
a better (supported?) way to do this?
Thanks!
