Sorry - this, from "man 3 read" is the relevant manpage section:

...
ERRORS
        EAGAIN Non-blocking I/O has been selected using O_NONBLOCK and no
        data was  immediately available for reading.
...

So poll i saying that data is available, and read is saying that it isn't. 
Is anyone else confused?
