I have made some good progress on porting libkqueue to Solaris. As of r106, 
libkqueue builds on Solaris, and uses port_create(3C) and port_getn(3C) to 
emulate the BSD kqueue() and kevent() syscalls. There is a lot more work to 
be done to get it working, but the basic framework is there.

The project home page is http://mark.heily.com/libkqueue
