According to the README, it has portability as a goal.
Looking at src/kqueue.c, it supports some BSDs.
Looking at posix.c, it should support anything POSIX-like
(and hence, the Hurd).

As such, I don't think the qualifier 'for Linux' is very meaningful
here.

‘(guix)Synopses and Descriptions’ recommends avoiding acronyms:

[...] Use full sentences, and avoid using acronyms without first
introducing them. [...]

‘@item file descriptor event handlers’ would be more explicit and
avoids the 'fd' acronym.

Otherwise, the description looks nice to me.

Greetings,
Maxime.
