Right.  That was a thinko on my part...

The original select(2) code had a maxf variable, and the router zmpoll
code (on which I was basing mine) had a highfd variable.  While I was
modifying the code I left most of the "old" code intact, so I could
gradually move from select(2) to zmpoll().  And then I commented
out most unneeded code; this one I must have missed.
