In Response to Günther
Er, yes. But poll is level-triggered, so having to read everything would be a windows-only thing. epoll, the Linux equivalent to Windows' "events", has both edge- and level-triggered notifications, so perhaps windows also has both?
Looking at the code, New() looks fine, apart from the malloc thing, though a nullpointer for a zero-length allocation should be fine for the buffer, as you couldn't dereference the pointer anyway. (Posix helpfully declares: "If the size of the space requested is 0, the behavior is implementation-defined: the value returned shall be either a null pointer or a unique pointer.", and C89 concurs.) But there's a suspiciously commented-out assertion that would fail on zero-length buffers in getMBufPtr. Sadly, the commit message of the commit that commented out the assertion is simply "fixes and enhancements". In any case, passing a nullpointer to read or recv is bad style.
