I'm pretty sure there are some things that can be done to put a TCP socket into a state that's inappropriate for O_NONBLOCK mode, but I can't think of any off the top of my head. Is there a reference somewhere that lists the kinds of things that a programmer needs to avoid? If there is, could the documentation page link to it, or import it?
