it is: configure tests whether or not select() works with zero available
decriptors (as it would be when used for the simple rlimit sandbox).
This doesn't work on Solaris, we think because poll (which is what's
used under the covers) requires a spare descriptor.

I just installed a Solaris 11 x86 VM to test this, and (other than
needing to create the privsep user and chroot dir) it worked ok.  Which
version of "nc" do you have?

Thanks.

    Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
