I haven't really looked at the code, except for making mods to get it to 
compile, but it works for me:

   struct timeval timeout = { 10, 0 };
  
   rv = socketpair(PF_UNIX, SOCK_DGRAM, 0, fd);
   if (rv < 0) printf("socketpair");
  
   fcntl(fd[0], F_SETFL, fcntl(fd[0], F_GETFL, 0) | O_NONBLOCK);
  
   FD_ZERO(&rfd);
   FD_SET(fd[0], &rfd);
  
   rv = select(fd[0]+1, &rfd, NULL, NULL, &timeout);
  
   if (FD_ISSET(fd[0], &rfd)) {
       printf("Socket is ready to read\n");
       rv = recv(fd[0], buf, sizeof(buf), MSG_DONTWAIT);
       if (rv < 0) printf("recv - %s(%d)", strerror(errno), errno);
       printf("Socket returned %d bytes\n", rv);
   } else {

   }

   exit (0);
}
