Well, the compiler complained about changing the meaning of loop in the
context of the watcher's base class, but adding the namespace to the type
when declaring the loop variable did the trick.

I'll commit this patch unless you have something against it:
http://git.llucax.com.ar/?p=software/libev.git;a=commitdiff;h=a11114f6c6a06077bcd9e208c064ebed9e577f8c

(I added operator () as an alias to run ()).

Yes, but you didn't like the explicit default_loop instantiation =)
And the loop has to be initialized somewhere...

For the sake of simplicity I think I'll go with the global function
returning a loop_ref. It's the closest to C API so if someone don't like
it I can blame you =P

Seriously, I see 2 main use cases:
1) Use the default_loop just once, like the unloop() call in a callback.
2) Use the default_loop more often.

In case 1), the extra () is not such a big deal. In case 2), you'll
probably store the loop in a local variable for convenience (and/or
performance), so no problem there.

If that's ok with you, I'll apply this patch to CVS too:
