Very cool :)

Claudio, we can point you precisely to where httpd 2.4 goes off the
rails.  We instantiate a socket connection (accept() or AcceptEx()
yet our presumptions about the state of the socket (block/nonblock
timeouts etc) were not honored.  There is a call, apr_os_socket_make()
which APR makes certain assumptions about.

Seems too fragile.  Perhaps that _make() call needs to IoCtl at the
socket to determine all of the 'anticipated' state conditions to be
able to roll on with the correct assumptions.
