thank you for letting me know that is an already known bug. Are there
more
known bugs regarding poll and socket fd (unblocking/IPv6 or so)? I'm
trying
to isolate a bug in combination with a kernel extension providing
SCTP support
and poll(). I currently do not know if the problem is related to poll
() or
the SCTP code...
Thank you very much for your help.
Best regards
Michael

Is it a feature or a bug of Tiger that poll() does not support stdin?
It's an unfortunate but known bug in Tiger, introduced by switching
poll() from an underlying select-based mechanism to a kqueue-based
mechanism. Kqueue in OS X does not work on devices such as
terminals (regardless of what file descriptor they're assigned).
There's an issue with binary compatibility inside the kernel that
prevented it being fixed in Tiger, but hopefully it can be sorted
in Leopard because it's an ongoing headache.
