You can't find the documentation because it doesn't exist. You should
be working with POE from cvs, which has changes specifically to make
the following advice work:
Your POE::Loop module should be named POE::Loop::Event-Lib. It should
be in your @INC path.
That's it. POE::Kernel will detect Event::Lib in %INC and try to load
POE::Loop::Event-Lib. The code is in a BEGIN block in POE::Kernel,
around line 406:
# Adapt POE::Kernel's personality to whichever event loop is present.
BEGIN {
my $used_first;
local $SIG{__DIE__} = "DEFAULT";
...;
