No more than it had been jarred ;-) Well, a bit more: it was possible to pass a first argument to select() that was larger than FDSETSIZE. In effect, FDSETSIZE had no meaning.
This begs the question then whether the check that is implemented has any relevance to any platform other than Linux. I am no portability guru, but I have to think there are other platforms where this patch will cause problems. For now at least, can we at least do some preprocessing magic to not use this code with Windows?
