The syslogd.c in busybox seems recently be changed (I just checked it
with my local cvs tree and I don't know who did this great thing),
and I think this problem may be fixed now in CVS, isn't it ?

The old syslogd.c use just accept(), but new syslogd.c use select()
before going to use accept(). This (using select()) is the same way
as the code in the standard sysklogd pacakge.

(I tried to work on this, but I found this work has been done already,
 so I do nothing for it. sorry)
