I've updated the patch to fix the panic when you try to select() on an=20
output endpoint.  The current implementation only allows for select()=20
on input endpoints.  I don't know why this was done, but it should be=20
simple to allow select() for writes.  This bug is also present in=20
NetBSD, so that needs to be fixed also.
