The issue is not really about "do we have <sys/select.h>?" but
is about "do we need to include <sys/select.h> in order to
obtain declaration of select(2)?" so this is covering only a
half of the issue.  But I guess we will find out if the system
does not offer select(2) whether <sys/select.h> is included or
not, so this is not too bad.

Will apply.  I do not think it would have problems but even if
it does it is small and easy to revert before the final.

Thanks.
