Well, that is one way of looking at it. I guess you're right.
But it breaks my code...

If there is a SSL wrapper for plain sockets, isn't there some
sort of SSL wrapper of select()?

I don't know if this function is exposed in M2Crypto... if it is,
I could probably get my code to work. If it isn't, I don't know
how to fix it :-(

Sorry about posting twice... must have hit 'send' once too often...
