Make error checking less zealous to handle devices like /dev/null
...
which don't provide a non-blocking interface.
This is a short term "fix" which changes a half-lose to a half-win.
The thread that accesses a device that does not provide a non-blocking
interface will block for its time slice.
A medium term solution would be to use rfork. A long-term solution
would be some sort of kernel thread/SMP implementation.

General cleanup and update to specify exactly how our implementation

The previous version had some typos, referred to itself as link(2) in

will be gentle with me. :-)
