New submission from Markus Korn <thekorn at gmx.de>:
select.epoll.register raises an IOError for already registered fds, however the docstring says the fd gets modified:
Python 2.7.1+ (r271:86832, Feb 24 2011, 15:00:15)
[GCC 4.5.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import select
>>> print select.epoll.register.__doc__
register(fd[, eventmask]) -> None
Registers a new fd or modifies an already registered fd.
fd is the target file descriptor of the operation.
events is a bit set composed of the various EPOLL constants; the default
is EPOLL_IN | EPOLL_OUT | EPOLL_PRI.
The epoll interface supports all file descriptors that support poll.
