If the programmers who wrote that software used poll() on FreeBSD 4.2,
then I'd say that they need to RTFM and learn about kernel queues and
accept filters. Not to mention that anyone using a kernel "out of the
box" needs to be larted.
Personally, I think that article casts more doubt on the authors than on
FreeBSD...
