This was my understanding as well.

Omar was cc-ed when this regression was reported. I did cc him on fix
and asked if he could try it. We have not heard from him.

This is the only report that I know of. I’m not sure why people
started talking about pselect. I was also confused why instead of
reviewing the patch and discussing the fix, we ended up talking about
how to simplify the code. We have deviated much from what should have
been a code review.
