I was merely commenting on your note that if select() returned a socket as
writable, and send() writes more than internally allowed, then send() would block.
It wouldn't!  It'd just write the allowable count, and return as a short write,
whether the socket was blocking or not.

select() and poll() whether I/O would block.  By the virtue of this,
a socket, which is in error (except for EAGAIN), is writable exactly
because write()/send() to such a socket would return -1 right away.
