OS was QNX 6.3.2. libCurl version=7.19.3.
The select error occured during an endurance test.
The timestamps left are of format seconds:milliseconds.

select() returned -1 and the errno was 9 / EBADF / "Bad file descriptor"

What might be the reason for that error ?

Well, call me crazy but I would guess that one possible reason is that select() considered one or more of the file descriptors in use to be bad.

Maybe it is a problem of the OS and has nothing to do with libCurl ?

Could be. It's not easy to tell for us, but we've never seen this problem reported before.

How severe is that problem in general? Can it destabilize the whole system (->crash) ?

I have no idea.
