Implementations [as in "implementation of the standard" = OS product] are allowed to still declare select in sys/time.h, and most probably do so in order to preserve backward compatibility. If you want your program running on current "real" systems, use sys/time.h. If you want it portable "according to the spec", use sys/select.h. It is not clear which one is more preferable right now. In the long term, sys/select.h is the way to go, but probably quite a few "legacy" OSes in wide use are lacking it.
