I'm not sure off-hand, but I'd look to other projects that make use of OS-offered event functions like libevent.

Since I do not know if you can use libevent (<http://monkey.org/~provos/libevent/>) directly, perhaps you can at least see how that project does it and use similar mechanisms.

If you could use libevent (or its mechanisms), you might even get support for kevents and other more efficient implementations along with it.
