It's a design bug. In any case, libev is not a linux-only library, and doe
snot attempt to implement linux-only behaviour that is at odds with portable
functionality.

You can poll for POLLPRI events using libev by using epoll and watching
the epoll file descriptor - while epoll is effectively a linux-only
function, that is fine, as it seems only to be required on linux.

There is little point in bloating libev with functionality that is a)
already supported with a bit of extra work and b) is only useful for
linux.
