Doesn't seem quite right to me yet - the problem is that if data arrives 
1 byte at a time with just less than the timeout between each byte, then 
you can get n*timeout as the actual timeout (where n is potentially very 
large). You need to reduce the timeout after each select, surely?

Apart from that, it looks good. Apologies for delay, I managed to 
overlook this.

Cheers,

Ben.
