Having already ran into various "fun" platform inconsistencies working on that branch, I've concluded that - while I agree this issue wants fixing - it's not something that it's sensible to try and sneak in this side of the Christmas release, since it risks destabilizing a bunch of things that work fine, for the sake of a more rare thing that does not. So, it's off the xmas tickets list. It's pretty much certain that nobody will write code that relies on this failing to work, so fixing it after xmas and making it something you can expect to work in 6.d (and so including it in the test suite then) will be fine. Note that while this ticket doesn't mention it, the issue also exists for synchronous sockets; there, though, there's an easy workaround, which is to use IO::Socket::Async, so it's even less of an issue.
