I am trying to figure out the difference between select and poll,
it does not appear to be anything substantial, i.e. just a change
in arguments in ("events" instead of "rw") and out ("revents"
instead of 0/1). Is there any documentation somewhere ?

On passing, it seems that sequences like the following (from
pcaudio.c, a similar thing is in asc.c) would be much easier to
read if replaced by selrecord(p, &pca_status.wsel ).

	if (pca_status.wsel.si_pid &&
		    (p1=pfind(pca_status.wsel.si_pid))
		    && p1->p_wchan == (caddr_t)&selwait)
		pca_status.wsel.si_flags = SI_COLL;
	else
		pca_status.wsel.si_pid = p->p_pid;


	Cheers
	Luigi
