OK - I've reverted that patch, and applied a simpler one to deal
with the immediate problem.  (i.e. skip any fd's that are too large
to be handled by fd_set, etc).

A better solution to handling large fd's will probably need to wait until 5.6.
(Although perhaps we could start looking at this reasonably soon - the
offending patch has been in place since early 2007, so it's a little
disappointing that these issues weren't picked up earlier, in time to
deal with them for the 5.5 release)
