libeio
Marc Lehmann, the author of libev, started development on libeio, a C language async io library. It's "similar to both the POSIX functions (just with a continuation/callback) and libev". Uses threads internally. Requests have two options for completion notification: they return an object that can be polled against or they take a callback. It isn't dependent on libev (or any event loop) but integration is easy. Read more about the design here.
