Currently File#getc fails with "Illegal Seek" when reading
from /dev/ttyS0 on Linux. If that worked, I could keep the reader
thread separate, and only have a timeout on threads copying data from my
own input buffer.
Ok...no guarantees on when, but we can make it a priority. Have you
already filed a bug for the issue? Do so if not. Hopefully we can find a
way to make this interruptible/timeoutable for you. There's also the
possibility of calling out to C via FFI to do a "real" select, though
that would be a more drastic measure. At any rate, we'll find a way.
