  select.t: add a TODO due to undefined behavior

>From opengroup.org:

"[...] what constitutes an exceptional condition is file type-specific.
 [...] For [non-socket] file types it is implementation-defined."

This test fails on OS X and possibly other BSDs because they differ
from Linux's behavior.  The entire test should probably use sockets
because, if nothing else, select on files doesn't work in Windows.
