That's already done. In lwip_io_select_common() the timeout is rounded
just before calling lwip_poll().

It shouldn't be difficult to write a lwip_ppoll() function, I'll try
it some day.

OK

OK

OK

OK Again.

I think I've done all your requested changes, but the perl testsuite
indeed found some bugs. So I'll send the new patch when I have them
fixed.
