I need to apologize, my sample code made things more confusing.

In unix the code I posted would have raised an error because
newsockfs=accept()...would not block and just pass through. The idea
is you can loop through accept() and multiplex multiple inputs.

but in plan9/ape it works just as how you shown regardless of the
fcntl non-block command. so I will not be able to loop through several
sockets because it would block.
