That makes sense. Meanwhile, similar errors have unsurprisingly shown up on the Hurd, but I'm not sure it supports either epoll or kqueue anyway. > The main difference appears to be polling mechanisms.

I vaguely recall something about an epoll compatibility library, but forget the details, and anyway it's better to use kqueue if possible. > I'll ask upstream how they want to treat kFreeBSD.
