FTR the python-dev discussion looks like it is 
<https://marc.info/?l=python-dev&m=133169928819705&w=2>. The argument for this 
change seems to be to support users monkey-patching the socket module, but not 
monkey-patching the select module. But this seems unreasonable to me.

I also agree the would make it harder to fix the wakeup polling problem. I 
suggest to reject this change.

Also, if you want a method to be overridable in subclasses, I don’t think it 
should have an underscore prefix.
