Ok, maybe the debian brokenness exists in FC5 too, and a "yum upgrade" 
broke it for me rather than any kernel work. I guess I'll just have to try 
different kernels and see if the kernel matters at all. The strace output 
just made me assume that maybe the kernel _does_ do something wrong.

My cupsd is 32-bit (but so is my X server, so I'd assuge strace has the 
same breakage). Strace looks ok when I trace "firefox", though (which is 
using "poll()", not select). So..
