Btw, is this really enough information ?
Consider this:
You use FD_SET() to add a socket to the set (you just bump_up
max_fd if socket > max_Fd)
But when using FD_CLR() to remove a socket how do we know
which socket in this set has the highest number now
and whats the number anyway (beside 42) then ?
Seems like we need a list for every set containing the current
socket numbers in the set (if I'm not totally wrong :) because
AFAIK if you don't keep a list of the numbers of a set without
brute force you can't retrieve the list.
Maybe we should just stick to the single function which in
addition returns the handle of the socket itself.
