The event you're using kqueue to block for is the input to which NSRunLoop refers. NSRunLoop is just Cocoa's implementation of a kevent()-style loop. Instead of adding your socket to the kqueue, add it to the run loop instead. (See e.g. http://cocoadevcentral.com/articles/000039.php -- which uses the CFRunLoop interface, but it's the same run loop.) No need for a separate thread to handle the main task.
