  This isn't very difficult.  See _UnixWaker/_Win32Waker at in http://cvs.twistedmatrix.com./cvs/trunk/twisted/internet/default.py?view=markup&rev=12283&root=Twisted

  Building a "selectable Queue" on top of the "wakeUp" primitive is a handful of lines at most.  Of course, with the deferToThread() function already built on top of it, the selectable Queue concept doesn't seem quite as attractive anymore.
