I/O completion ports are implemented in the SuperCore package, which hasn't
been worked on for awhile.  Nobody has had time to jump back into it.  If
you need it, you are free to jump into it yourself and contribute to it.

There is no ETA on that.  SuperCore is an experiment.  It is not part of the
main Indy library.  It is an addon.
