I have a change that seems to work, at least I've tested with http & https using an external kqueue/kevent event manager.
Christian: do you mind looking over https://github.com/nomis52/libmicrohttpd/pull/1/files which has the API & an example program. If you're happy with the approach I'll clean up the rest of the code so you can review it.
