Moving up a level in design space, what is this "other stuff" you need
to do after waiting at most one second?  I ask because it might make
sense to do it on a periodic evtimer *instead*, thus allowing you to
stay inside event_base_loop indefinitely.  That's more in keeping with
the design of the library.
