Is anybody else having problems with select on 2.10 BSD?  We're running it
on an 11/44 with an Interlan ethernet board, and our inetd won't work.  I
followed the problem back to where inetd does a select for read on the open
sockets to see if any are ready for an accept.  Select reports that all are
ready for reading, yet none are.  This causes inetd to hang in accept
forever.  I haven't had the patience to track it through the kernel yet.
