You might try using libev, which is very fast, and just one file
designed to be "sucked in" (copy-pasted) into other projects. In fact
part of its API is to do #defines that change the ABI, so that's the
only way to use it.

Anyway libev is very fast/small and would just replace the current
mainloop thingy for dbus-daemon. It supports epoll and also weirder
stuff on various platforms.
