That's true, however OpenSSH provides an implementation of poll()
(which is not specified by POSIX) on top of select() (which is) in the
compat library.

We have been slowly migrating to the poll API since it's a bit more
programmer-friendly, at least for our use case, so the use of poll is
not an issue.

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