argument from the fd bitmasks are copied from and back to userspace. This solves an ABI dependency on OPEN_MAX. If nfds is too big for the current OPEN_MAX, select() fails (but that's relatively easy to fix by 'just' recompiling the system and not the application binaries), but if it's smaller, binaries keep working.
