That wouldn't work very well, because each iteration through the loop
contains a call to select(), and select() may block for a long period of time
(it willl block until the next piece of I/O is ready for processing, or until
the next PulseNode event-time has arrived).

You can get lots of callback hooks by installing a Session object and
overriding some of its methods to do what you want.  (The session
object doesn't have to be connected to a client... you can pass in
socket=3D-1 to indicate there is no connection)
