I guess I know the anser: FLORIST isn't complete in this region, at least
florist-990327 (it's even mentioned in the README, silly me). :( 

Is there a new version available which supports Select and Poll?  If not,
I think I'll have to hack it myself.  Is FLORIST actively maintained
by someone whom I should contact?  The README file is a bit vague.

Or were both Select and Poll dropped from POSIX.5 (as it was the case
with POSIX.1)?
