On Windows, all included in the original license fees (at no additional  
cost), you have…

WaitForSingleObject(Ex):  
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms687032(v=vs.85).aspx
WaitForMultipleObjects(Ex):  
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms687025(v=vs.85).aspx
Select: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms740141(v=vs.85).aspx
WSAAsyncSelect:  
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms741540(v=vs.85).aspx
WSAEventSelect:  
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms741576(v=vs.85).aspx
There was also something like WaitForEvents if my mind is right, but I  
could not retrieve the relevant reference.
