Comment:

 I have done some work on the scheduler and simplified the fdset handling,
 so that the situation that `select(2)` waits for empty fdsets should not
 normally occur. Also, some sanity checks have been added. It's in the
 "safer-scheduler" branch, taken from the current "master" (4.6.0rc1).

 The right steps now would be to build chicken with this branch, which
 (considering that abnf is still broken, and the problems with sendfile)
 may be a bit of a challenge.

 Also, by changed the commented out debugging code at the start of
 scheduler.scm, it is possible to get quite verbose debugging output about
 scheduling. It may be worthwhile to enable this.
