Understood - I just meant that fibers is now (at least 99% of the way)
to "broadly portable".
I don't know the details of Olivier's question and libevent, but would
suggest that libevent does the sort of things that are needed and is the
standard portable approach and is thus worth a hard look as the
presumptive right answer, absent something better that only relies on
what POSIX requires (and what's on Hurd :-).
