 Replying to [comment:37 bos]:

 (and maybe the rename of {{{closeFd}}} pass muster, then?

 I'm a little confused. Is `System.Event` meant to be a public, portable
 API, or is it a private, GHC internal module?

 If the former then I think changes ought to go via the
 [http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Library_submissions library
 submissions process].

 If the latter then I wonder why it is not in the `GHC.*` namespace, and
 guarded by `if impl(ghc)` in the Cabal file?
