:The manpage has been updated in -current:
:
: If timeout is a non-nil pointer, it specifies the maximum interval to
: wait for the selection to complete. System activity can lengthen the in-
: terval by an indeterminate amount.
:
: If timeout is a nil pointer, the select blocks indefinitely.
:
: To effect a poll, the timeout argument should be non-nil, pointing to a
: zero-valued timeval structure.
:
:If no one objects I'll be committing it to -stable and praying to the
:gods that this thread dies.

'nil' ? 'nil' is the designation for an ascii 0, not a pointer.
Please use 'null' or 'NULL' -- for example, look at the gettimeofday
man page. 'nil' has nothing to do with pointers.
