No it isn't. You can pass bigger fdsets in if you want. Just make sure
that all your selects use the bigger fdsets. The gnu c library also
does not offer a standard define to increase fd_set (unlike most other
modern Unixes), so you have to declare them on your own. I guess the
glibc folks will eventually fix that if they haven't already.
