I can't tell you explicitly why it has failed, but Unix.select was
completely rewritten for OCaml 3.11.0 based on a big contribution from
Sylvain Le Gall (see otherlibs/win32unix/select.c). The principal aim was to
make the semantics of Unix.select the same between *NIX and Windows so if it
works on Linux then it sounds like you've hit a bug...
