  Why are you trying to use 3.2 with libkqueue?  There is pretty much zero benefit.

  v4 requires the most recent development version of libkqueue.  We've put many fixes into libkqueue.

  v3 uses select() etc. on Linux, and kqueue() on OSX and *BSD.

  If you want to use libkqueue on Linux with v3, then either don't (the recommended approach), or use the most recent code from the git repo.  The released packages of libkqueue are very old.
