good point: it is not really obsoleted for *all* sources (unfortunately). So
far, I have only moved imudp and the plain tcp netstream driver to epoll. The
others use your patch, if enabled. Also, on systems where epoll is not
available, the patch is included for plain tcp as well (I will keep the
select() code because it is more portable, but disable it if I find epoll).
