dnl From Mark D Baushke & Derek Price.
dnl
dnl See if select() on a /dev/null fd hangs when timeout is NULL.
dnl Also check to see that /dev/null is in the readfds set returned.
dnl
dnl Observed on Solaris 7:
dnl If /dev/null is in the readfds set, it will never be marked as
dnl ready by the OS. In the case of a /dev/null fd being the only fd
dnl in the select set and timeout == NULL, the select will hang.
dnl
dnl If the test fails, then arrange to use select only via a wrapper
dnl function that works around the problem.
