I don't know. Of course it misses similar new tests added to ssl.c (see the msg that started this thread), so it spreads beyond just this. Does it do the right thing for Windows variants like Cygwin, and OS/2? Don't know.

I see. How does Py_SOCKET_FD_CAN_BE_GE_FD_SETSIZE help here? Does defining it in PC/pyconfig.h do the right thing?

I guess I'm primarily opposed to the visual ugliness of the define. Why does it spell out "can be", but abbreviates "greater than or equal to"? What about Py_CHECK_FD_SETSIZE?
