In our child DNS lookup processes, don't bother to use select to watch the pipe with our parent. These processes don't do anything else, and they only need to watch one fd, so we can just use a blocking read() call. I don't think this will negatively affect anything, and it seems to fix some kind of funky rare race condition where the libpurple client will block while trying to read() a response from the child. If you think we should continue using select here, or you notice some problems with this, please let me know (and maybe even revert this)
