Re: [PATCH v2] implement full-blown select(2) for winsock

[Bruno Haible]

Hi Paolo,

Thank you for providing this select() implementation! With it, I can now make
'msgfilter' work on mingw.

Here's a patch for a possible optimization: select() on a regular file
should return "ready" always, no? There's no need to even call
WaitForSingleObject on this one, IMO. Proposed patch:

        * lib/winsock-select.c (win32_poll_handle): Add shortcut for regular
        files.
