/* NAME
/*	read_wait 3
/* SUMMARY
/*	wait until descriptor becomes readable
/* SYNOPSIS
/*	#include <iostuff.h>
/*
/*	int	read_wait(fd, timeout)
/*	int	fd;
/*	int	timeout;
/* DESCRIPTION
/*	read_wait() blocks the current process until the specified file
/*	descriptor becomes readable, or until the deadline is exceeded.
/*
/*	Arguments:
/* .IP fd
/*	File descriptor in the range 0..FD_SETSIZE (on systems that
/*	need to use select(2)).
/* .IP timeout
/*	If positive, deadline in seconds. A zero value effects a poll.
/*	A negative value means wait until something happens.
/* DIAGNOSTICS
/*	Panic: interface violation. All system call errors are fatal.
/*
/*	A zero result means success.  When the specified deadline is
/*	exceeded, read_wait() returns -1 and sets errno to ETIMEDOUT.
