Yes it should. It is IMHO likely Alan will get Bill's 30000 fd patch
in before 2.2 is released. It has been in his ac patch series for a
while. With that many descriptors, poll(2) is essentially mandatory.
I think glibc 2.1 has (will have) a select(3) which emulates select(2)
via poll(2), but even so....
