It does. I straced the worker lpd; it does the following in an endless loop:

select(8, [7], [], NULL, {0, 0})        = 0 (Timeout)
fcntl(7, F_GETFL)                       = 0x800 (flags O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK)
fcntl(7, F_SETFL, O_RDONLY)             = 0
time(NULL)                              = 964047945
time([964047945])                       = 964047945
fcntl(7, F_GETFL)                       = 0 (flags O_RDONLY)
fcntl(7, F_SETFL, O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK)  = 0

An obvious and rather primitive semi-solution would be to add a usleep()
somewhere, but I'm sure you can come up with something better.

The above result was obtained with lprng 3.6.20-1.
