si_fd is available in the 2.2 kernel ABI, so if you want to move si_band
I'd prefer to avoid relocating si_fd at the same time.

What about

        {
                int _padding; /* Old location of int _band */
                int _fd;
                long _band; /* POLL_IN, POLL_OUT, POLL_MSG */
        };

as a solution?
