Description:         While tinkering on a project, I frequently found myself
		     having to make FFI calls to @select(2)@. This package is an attempt
		     reduce the boilerplate I needed to do that. While at it, I took the
		     opportunity to have what @select@ returns put in a 'TMVar'.
		     .
		     The package has three parts:
		     .
		     ["System.Posix.IO.Select"] just wraps @select@.
		     .
		     ["Control.Concurrent.STM.TMVarIO"] and "Control.Concurrent.MVarIO" put the
		     return value of IO actions into a 'TMVar' or an 'MVar', respectively.
		     .
		     ["System.Posix.IO.Select.STM"] and "System.Posix.IO.Select.MVar" do the above for
		     @select@.
		     .
		     /NOTE/: I feel I'm occupying prime namespace realestate with a package name
		     like select. I'll happily let myself be chased away if anybody else wants
		     to use this package name. Let me know.
		     .
		     /CAVEAT/: I'm not an experienced Haskeller, and this is my first foray into
		     FFI in general.
