   By setting FD_SETSIZE early in connect.c we override the QNX default value
   As QNX is targetted for resource constrained environments, the QNX headers
   and thus avoid a crash.
   set conservative limits. This includes the FD_SETSIZE macro, set by default

   to 32. Socket descriptors returned within the CURL library may exceed this,
   Fortunately in the QNX headers its defined as
   resulting in memory faults/SIGSEGV crashes when passed into select(..)

   calls using fd_set macros.
    #ifndef FD_SETSIZE

      #define FD_SETSIZE 32
   A good all-round solution to this is to override the default when building
    #endif
   libcurl, by overriding CFLAGS during configure, example

   #  configure CFLAGS='-DFD_SETSIZE=64 -g -O2'
   so its relatively easy to override without changing the original
   definition. QNX claim posix compliance so this definition style could be
   standard in other o/s's. Eg Microsoft Visual C++ 6 defines it similarly,
   but its set to 64.
