You can't, gotta use poll() or select() after catching the SIGIO signal..
Why you'd *want* to use SIGIO on anything I'm not sure. On Linux there is
an extension to SIGIO that allows the kernel to send the fd information
using real time signals. But I don't think that FreeBSD supports this.
What are you trying to accomplish out of curiousity? ;)
