Solaris 10 introduced "The Event Completion Framework".  I am not
particularly familiar with Solaris, so I couldn't say whether it would
be better to target this or the older /dev/poll.  Some documentation
suggests that "The Event Completion Framework" is somewhat preferred:

http://developers.sun.com/solaris/articles/event_completion.html

It suggests that /dev/poll is not as performant, but I'm not sure I
believe it.  One feature which it does seem to have which puts it ahead
of /dev/poll is the support of various non-fd event sources (eg, timers).
