readv(), writev(), struct iovec, fd_set, inpfds(). BeOS is not very
POSIX-compilant, I think.

A couple of screenshots with different BeOS-isms in the background
available at http://strange.merseine.nu:8080/freesci/.
These are from a native build, and that requires a few more changes.
I'll submit a new patch soon.
Things to note on the BeOS port:
- it's very slow, but that seems to be a general problem with SDL on
BeOS (Sarien runs slower on BeOS too).
- it has graphic corruption with the mouse pointer, the background is
taken from the incorrect scene (usually previous scene, sometimes a
few rooms back)
- can't talk to the beach girl in LSL3
I'll investigate these later, I'll try to polish the build process first.
