I can't answer this definitively, but according to the erl man page:
+K true | false:
Enables or disables the kernel poll functionality if the
emulator supports it. Default
is false (disabled). If the emulator does not support
kernel poll, and the +K flag is
passed to the emulator, a warning is issued at startup.
