I really appreciate any help and ideas to solve this issue! I just did
not get the idea behind this attempt.
Could you explain it in more detail (something particular to observe)?

I need to use the ZMQ_FD together with libev to get my other IO
handled in the same process.
The doc is pretty clear about using it (together with ZMQ_EVENTS) and
I just don't understand why the x.lua is blocking when handling x.req
> 1 instances. The egde-triggered fashion of handling the fd is
treated just right in my opinion.
