using #:select.
If you do this, can you adjust system/repl/coop-server.scm to avoid it?
It imports the following private bindings:
start-repl* run-server* add-open-socket! close-socket!

Fair enough. Having mulled it over, I tend to agree that we should not
try to make this more convenient.

I think asking people to use @@ is reasonable here.
