As per Paolo Bonzini, the original author, this is a bug and to be
fixed like in this commit, which is not to exit if the 2nd arg is 0.

Actually this one is not needed for win32 (nor does win32 suffer from
a similar bug), so should probably better get added after patch 2/2
(or as part of it), the move to compat/poll/.


It just got added that was to gnulib, with a commit message of:

don't exit early if NULL is the 1st arg to poll(),
but nfd is 0.  In that case poll should behave like select.
