:It seems all BSDs leave select()'s timeout argument unchanged on

It looks reasonable after a quick perusal.
select()'s timeout argument is always left unchanged. Linux originally
adjusted it on return but I was under the impression that they
reverted back to the BSD method of not touching it. The changing of
the timeout argument was a major mistake that linux made in their
implementation a long, long time ago.
