Yes. Actually both select() and poll() are based on it, it's simply the
native MIG messages which everything in the Hurd is based on in the
end. You could perhaps have a look at the source code hurdselect.c,
I just warn that it's hairy.  Perhaps would could define an easier
interface for users, inheriting ideas from other kernels, I don't know.
