select?

["Perry E. Metzger" <perry@piermont.com>]

The documentation for the select call says:

    These two procedures have been de-released for version 0.6. They will
    come back in a later verison of Scsh.

The absence of a select call makes writing many kinds of programs,
like event driven networking code, impossible. Why was the call
withdrawn, and what should one do in its absence?
