gnulib is the right place for such an emulation, because poll(2) is a
more efficient API than select(2) when the process has a large number
of open file descriptors.

Before putting it in, it would be good if you would
  - check / compare with glibc/sysdeps/unix/bsd/poll.c,
  - use GNU indentation style.
