So he wants a signal when a message is available in a kqueue, in other
words, can be read with kevent(2).

I do notice there are message queues (mq(3)) which are file descriptors
and have such functionality. Does that mean that mq_notify(3) might work
on any file descriptor, or is that too optimistic in hoping that these
things are implemented orthogonally?
