I agree.  I also like the addition of pselect(2) and your proposal
for pollts(2).

I wonder if it would also be nice to add a nanosecond-resolution
version of EVFILT_TIMER (EVFILT_TIMESPEC_TIMER ?) to kqueue(2),
even though the timer is currently tied to the callout mechanism
and runs at 'tick' resolution.
