I will add my own pet-peeve about select, which is that it's a pain to
interrupt in any fashion. The normal trick to deal with this is to
open a socket to yourself (and then add that socket to the read set
going in to select), so that you can force the select to return by
writing in to the socket.
Is there something wrong with using the timeout parameter to force it to
return at regular intervals to pick up your instructions??
