TRAP_BEG and TRAP_END are for MRI 1.8.  This is a fallback for if Cool.io
doesn't find the rb_thread_blocking_region() function, which allows it to
make blocking system calls in a multithreaded environment. You'll probably
want to implement rb_thread_blocking_region() instead. I believe 1.9
additionally implements TRAP_BEG and TRAP_END using some C macro magic whic=
h
generates an rb_thread_blocking_region() call.

Beyond that, it's going to need GetOpenFile() and the FPTR_TO_FD() macro.
