Comment(by simonmar):
This is to be expected when not using `-threaded`, because the RTS uses
`select()` internally which has a fixed limit of 1024 descriptors.
However, the error shouldn't occur with `-threaded`, because it should be
using the new IO manager which has no such limit. Indeed, the
`awaitEvent` function is not ever called in the `-threaded` RTS, so I'm
not sure how you go the error. Could you double-check that you compiled
with `-threaded` (delete the executable first) and try again?
