Only that mixing file descriptor operations (like select) with stdio is
best described as "here there be dragons". It seems to me that it would
be a whole lot better to ensure that the file descriptors are in
blocking mode like stdio (and thus CVS) expects rather than trying to
fight to make them work in non-blocking mode.
