  libevent-python is a CPython wrapper extension for Niels Provos'
  libevent, a small, fast asynchronous IO framework that supports
  select(), poll(), kqueue(), /dev/poll, and epoll().

Libevent can be found here http://monkey.org/~provos/libevent/
and it explains the advantages of epoll/kqueue over select/poll.
