All supported systems support select (well, except MSDOS ... it does not need it).

so the select emulation in sysdep.c can go.

Just to set the record straight: The MS-DOS build has its own version
of `select', see msdos.c:sys_select.

I guess by "does not need it" you meant that the DOS build does not
support networking and async subprocesses -- which is true.  But it
still needs `select' to check for keyboard and mouse input.

The above does not affect this conclusion in any way, of course.
