Thanks.  Would it be a better idea to "patch up" in problematic
case, instead of making this logic too deeply nested, like this
instead, I have to wonder...


	... all the existing code above unchanged ...
	curl_multi_fdset(..., &max_fd);
+	if (max_fd < 0) {    
+		/* nothing actionable??? */
+		select_timeout.tv_sec = 0;
+		select_timeout.tv_usec = 50000;
+	}

	select(max_fd+1, ..., &select_timeout);
