I've just noticed that Bruno pushed a similar patch to git master yesterday: commit 4df5fde5d4f69397f3435c9804da5c88ddc7721e Author: Bruno Haible <br...@clisp.org> Date: Thu May 11 00:38:03 2017 +0200 poll: Fix link error on native Windows. * lib/poll.c [WINDOWS_NATIVE]: Undefine recv. unfortunately while that patch may have fixed a linker error, it does not actually make poll() function correctly. We're still passing HANDLE objects to the rpl_select() method, instead of calling the native select() method.
