As a comparsion, my Linux 2.6.18 with glibc 2.3.6 says:

pipe: POLLHUP
socketpair: POLLIN|POLLHUP
SHUT_WR socketpair: POLLIN
SHUT_RD socketpair: POLLIN
regular: POLLIN

Hm, ok so I guess we then really should make configure do the check for
poll/select on darwin like on other systems, and thus use poll() in the code.

Do you happen to have a patch for this?
