    Hi,

    I am trying to compile some code that uses a function __select. The
    compiler complains that the function is not declared. This fucntion
    turns out to be part of libc.so.6 library I think.

    I use 2.4.27.16 compiled from source. I have grepped for this function
    down through /usr/include and at /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.27/include
    and don't find it.

    Can anyone help me with where headers for this library/function ought
    to be and how to get them there?

    (and also if anyone can enlighten me as to what the so.6 extension on
    the lib means, I'd be ... well, enlightened ...)

    thanks very much

    Daniel
