 It doesn't rather than it doesn't seem to. It would be a big project to fix
 and you would probably need to implement all the other parts (eventfd,
 signalfd, timerfd) that correspond to the rest of the kqueue mechanisms,
 plus it supports edge and level triggered events.
 
 Out of interest what are you trying to run that uses epoll? I guess it is
 getting more common now.
