Hmm.  What do I do now?  :-)

Jaroslav, is it true what Paul says about this function not being robust
in the case of multithreaded use and poll(2) errors?  Can it be made to
be more robust?

Looking at the implementation I infer that
snd_pcm_poll_descriptors_revents() is not designed to handle pfds from
more than one stream.  Is that correct?
