Jesse Rittner words:

The Go Pselect wrapper never followed this requirement, which means this is a breaking change. 
I agree it was technically a bug, but it can break existing programs in hard-to-detect ways, 
particularly where EINTR is involved.

Thanks, but I think that changing this is fine. We are not as strict about backward compatibility in the x/sys repo as we are in the standard library.
