         * uses poll() rather than select(). Most POSIX systems implement
         * fd_set has a bit field with no sanity checks. This is especially bad
         * on systems (such as BSD) that have no process open files limit by
         * default, such that it is quite feasible to get fd >= FD_SETSIZE.
         * The next instructions will result in a buffer overflow if run on
         * a POSIX system, and the later FD_ISSET will do undefined memory
         * access.
         *
         * With Winsock, fd_set is a table of integers. This is awfully slow.
         * However, FD_SET and FD_ISSET silently and safely discard
         * overflows. If it happens we will loose socket events. Note that
         * most (if not all) Winsock SOCKET handles are actually bigger than
         * FD_SETSIZE in terms of absolute value - they are not POSIX file
         * descriptors. From Vista, there is a much nicer WSAPoll(), but Mingw
         * is yet to support it.
         *
         * With BeOS, the situation is unknown (FIXME: document).
