I don't see anything at http://www-db.deis.unibo.it/Mtree/
about implementing in a tripwire way... though
/usr/pkgsrc//pkgtools/mtree/DESCR is pretty straight forward.
same thing?

http://rsug.itd.umich.edu/software/radmind/
radmind - A suite of Unix command-line tools and a server designed to
remotely administer the file systems of multiple Unix machines. For Mac
OS X, there's also a graphical interface.  At its core, radmind
operates as a tripwire.

maybe overkill for you but I always think about radmind when
people say tripwire. never tried it but I understand it production
quality and useful.
