This is not completely correct. ZeroMQ uses advanced polling mechanisms like
kqueue/epoll/etc for internal poller implementation (for io threads) only.
For zmq_poll(), only select/poll based polling is available.

I plan to create a (solaris specific) /dev/poll and event ports based
zmq_poll() for one of my projects. I will provide a patch as soon as it's
finished and tested. It will take a couple of weeks till I get to it though.
