I need a fixed configure.in so that I can generate working configure scripts.
Getting your generated blob won't help me.

Can you show us the relevant pieces of your config.log file that shows the
failed select test? Why does the test for select fail?

I'm about to release 7.10.4 any day now. I would like to include a configure
script in it that works on HPUX 11.00 as well...

I found an old autoconf patch (only available in google's cache) that
mentions a select thing for autoconf and HP-UX fixes that might come handy:
http://216.239.53.100/search?q=cache:WqUeZL8lv68C:mail.gnu.org/pipermail/autoconf-patches/2000-July/005313.html+AC_FUNC_SELECT_ARGTYPES+hp-ux&hl=en&ie=UTF-8

There's also the AC_FUNC_SELECT_ARGTYPES macro that might be useful...

Any chance you can try out a few of these things?
