rebuild msvcrt itself (all say 2048, tho....)
odd...


http://doc.ddart.net/msdn/header/include/winsock.h.html
seems to say ''
#define FD_SET(fd, set) do { \
    if (((fd_set FAR *)(set))->fd_count < FD_SETSIZE) \
        ((fd_set FAR *)(set))->fd_array[((fd_set FAR
*)(set))->fd_count++]=(fd);\
} while(0)

that in an fd_set we can only fit the FIRST FD_SETSIZE''s into there!
arr!  it ignores numbers, but limits total number. Ahh.
