I've grabbed it from the GNU site. It looks useful, so thanks for the
pointer, but a quick look for using poll() for asynchronous i/o shows
that it isn't a replacement for "UNIX System Programming": on this topic,
at least, the book is much clearer. A closer look shows me that there's
quite a lot of overlap at the detail level, but the book offers a better
way into using some of the more complex sets of related functions.
