RPC and select

Although the /usr/include/sys/types.h defines struct fd_set as an
array of longs to allow at least 64 descriptor bits the definition of
svc_fds in /usr/include/rpc/svc.h is an int, allowing only 32 bits.
Looking through libc.a I see svc_fds is defined but there is no svc_fdset
as Sun uses (where svc_fds is #defined as the first element of svc_fdset).
Any good reason why this would be?
