Summary: poll problem on Linux 2.0.38, glibc 2.0.7

Details: Originally reported by Neil Schemenauer in a
comment in patch #101682:

After this patch the selectmodule compiles but test_poll fails with: 
File "Lib/test/test_poll.py", line 77, in poll_unit_tests 
r = p.poll() 
error: (9, 'Bad file descriptor') 

The kernel is 2.0.38 if that makes a difference.

Comment:
I'm closing this bug report; I have no access to the platform in
question,
and therefore no way to debug the problem or propose a fix.  If the
original reporter can provide a patch, it'll certainly be considered, but
that's about all I can do.

I get the exact same result on OpenBSD 2.5 with the most current CVS
version.  On OpenBSD 2.7 (this has Python 2.0b2 installed), I get:

test_support.TestSkipped: select.poll not defined -- skipping test_poll

Both versions of OpenBSD appear to support the poll mechanism.
