Right. We need to make the inclusions based on results from the configure
script and abandon the idea of having them agnostic of those facts.

The only thing that still have prevented me from doing so, is that I haven't
yet figured out a nice way of doing that. The requirements would be 1) it
should work even for non-configure uses and 2) defines/ifdefs should use our
own name-scope (i.e defines prefixed with CURL_ and not simply using HAVE_).

The sys/select.h inclusion in curl/multi.h is a perfect example, and it is one
of the custom patches the NetBSD people to do curl in their packaging.
