epoll is specific to Linux 2.6. You should not expect it to be available on
buildds for *any* architecture (except amd64) until after the release of
etch; packages must be able to build on buildds running in a chroot against
the previous stable release, and they must install and run when installed
against the previous stable release to support partial upgrades.
