I understand your concerns, but *this* patch bundle extends poll()/select()/epoll, and is not an alternative to kevent or other work in progress, (and linux centered)

It is adding huge amounts of complexity and at the same time is not

to do it right instead of piling on more and more workarounds for
special situations.
