Not sure if this matters, but I just went to build it on FreeBSD/clang
and got


  init.c:1041:9: warning: logical not is only applied to the left hand side of this bitwise operator [-Wlogical-not-parentheses]
      if (!p.revents & POLLIN) {
          ^          ~
  init.c:1041:9: note: add parentheses after the '!' to evaluate the bitwise operator first
      if (!p.revents & POLLIN) {
          ^
           (                 )
  init.c:1041:9: note: add parentheses around left hand side expression to silence this warning
      if (!p.revents & POLLIN) {
          ^
          (         )
  1 warning generated.

in case this is important.  I'd have to dig into the code to try
and suss out the intent, whether you intended

  (!p.revents) & POLLIN

vs

  !(p.revents & POLLIN)

As a double-offender here, running FreeBSD and with access to st(1)
as a terminal (though my daily-driver is either xterm(1) or rxvt(1)),
I'd be glad to put it through its paces.

Is there a way to build a test-case here, such as a dummy reminder
file I should use, or a particular set of ~/.XDefaults type settings
I should try?  Or even just an OSC sequence I should

  $ printf '...' && hexdump -C

to capture the sequence returned?
