Hmm.  Sure I can, and it definitely uses select() here and there -
samba & Oracle8 & cronyd & vtund & syslogd - that's services
running on it all using select(2).  Can you elaborate a bit
more on this please?  I mean, should it lock up on first select()
(so that it's not what I see here) or on some random one (still
may be the situation I see), or not so-random which is more-or-less
possible to trigger?

Thank you for the reply!
