Well, no hard dependency. I just thought it would make sense to do this first, as it would reduce the work required to convert the library to a more traditional read/write design. I'm sure it's possible to shoehorn async i/o into the current library as well. Especially as there is no point in adding support for "real" async i/o at the moment, since e.g. Linux supports it only in conjunction with direct I/O. Frontend syntax support can be added before the actual backend takes advantage of it. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25561
