Solaris implementation of WIN32 events #27

Description

I was curious to see what solutions people had come up for waiting on multiple semaphores, and came across https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7780749/waiting-on-multiple-semaphores-without-busy-waiting-c-c-linux , which links to https://web.archive.org/web/20080704011208/http://developers.sun.com/solaris/articles/waitfor_api.pdf

That solaris paper documents the implementation of WaitForMultipleObjects on a POSIX platform, and includes the code for it.

Since your README includes:

To the author's best knowledge, this is the only implementation of WIN32 events available for Linux and other posix platforms that provides support for simultaneously waiting on multiple events.

It might be nice to document the existence of this implementation (probably not even open source? already a plus for pevents) as historical evidence :)
