The configure help lies a bit. Hasn't been updated to reflect what is
actually happening. If you doesn't specify any --enable/disable
epoll/kqueue/poll/select/ options then configure probes the system for
the best available. If you use --disable-... then those alternatives is
excluded, if you use --enable-... then that alternative is enforced.

Have updated the help texts to better explain what is going on.
