Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment:

According to POSIX, EINVAL in select() means either "an invalid timeout 
interval was specified" or "the nfds argument is less than 0 or greater than 
FD_SETSIZE".

(http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007904875/functions/pselect.html)

Additionally, Python's select.select() should raise ValueError if a file 
descriptor is outside of [0; FD_SETSIZE[, so the invalid timeout interval seems 
possible.
