# A queue that you can pass to IO.select.
#
# NOT THREAD SAFE: Only one thread should write; only one thread should read.
#
# Purpose:
#   Allow easy integration of data-producing threads into event loops.  The
#   queue will be readable from select's perspective as long as there are
#   objects in the queue.
