Summary 0000680: pselect EINTR error case clarification
Description As discussed on the mailing list (Apr 18 -- Apr 20), pselect's EINTR error case description is somewhat confusingly worded. The EINTR text refers to "events", which isn't a term used elsewhere in the pselect description. Preferably it would use the same terminology of descriptors becoming ready.
Desired Action In pselect's ERRORS section, change:

  [EINTR]
    The function was interrupted before any of the selected events
    occurred and before the timeout interval expired.

to

  [EINTR]
    The function was interrupted while blocked waiting for any of the
    selected descriptors to become ready and before the timeout
    interval expired.
