Since call-process normally doesn't return until the process is finished, that
will not differ from what we have now.
As for selecting in two places, this is already done, for example when you
open a new network socket, when a menu is opened on X, and when waiting for
resize events on X. You just put in the pipe end of stdin and stderr into the
select and loop on that.
