I'm not worried about not having eventfd, I'm worried about not having the 
glibc wrapper for eventfd. You'll need to check if you have a version of glibc 
that has that wrapper, and if not, include something like:

#define EFD_SEMAPHORE 1
#define EFD_CLOEXEC O_CLOEXEC
#define EFD_NONBLOCK O_NONBLOCK

int eventfd(unsigned int count, int flags)
{
  return syscall(__NR_eventfd2, count, flags);
}
