I agree 100% with Markus in this case. It's not a good idea to change existing system calls in a way that affect any unknown number of existing programs, and compatibility for these APIs are handled through mintlib. I'd much rather see a nice implementation of Fselect2() :)

In my opinion it absolutely doesn't matter -- with the old Fselect you've got broken vim (and perhaps some other sparemint software), with the new Fselect you've got broken other software (MyAES, Litchi, ...).  And since the changes has already been done and all the authors are aware of that change, I tend to agree with Alan, let's not confuse things even more.
